Covering a diverse array of artists and concepts, it includes interactive activities that follow a gamified learning approach. Accompanying art supplies are available in stores to enhance the app and the creative experience.

Problem
In the United States, many public school districts have been cutting funding to their arts programs or even removing the classes from the curriculum altogether. This is detrimental to students in the long run, as exposure to the arts aids in memory retention, problem-solving skills, critical thinking, and improved academic performance.
