Our Experiences

COMMUNITY SCULPTURES

Our Community Sculptures program is a unique way to bring children together through Art. We facilitate a collaborative project where up to 400 students paint their own mini-mural piece, which is then put together to create a huge sculpture. Each student's creative contribution is represented by a painted piece on the sculpture, making it a truly one-of-a-kind.

Join us in building a sense of
community and connection through Art.

The final sculpture is secured to a roll cart for portability through the school, and can be removed from cart to hang on wall.

Chief Idea Officer

James Kindler

James Kindler is a mixed media painter and 3D sculptor. Based in Columbus, Ohio, Kindler is also a member of the Artist Wrestling League (AWL). The Super Art League was born from an adaptation of his pilot of the AWL Kids program. Kindler saw the program making a difference, as shy, quiet kids would open up when adopting a fun, amplified persona. He is co-founder and Chief Idea Officer of the Super Art League.

“I coached soccer for 12 years. I don’t remember our win-loss record, but I can tell you how many kids went to college. I taught them life lessons." Kindler sees the Super Art League as a way to teach kids to get up in front of people, to give them some performance skills and confidence while being positive and affirming of their unique traits.

Professionally, Kindler owns a successful commercial and residential renovation and home improvement business.
