Expressing Gratitude for MTM’s “Epic Program”

Posted on October 15, 2019

Who doesn’t love positive feedback and gratitude? We recently received the letter below from a former MTM student. That our program made such a long-lasting impression on her warms our artsy hearts.


Good afternoon! I’m writing to you today with a deep appreciation for the Meet the Masters program. I attended elementary school at a private Catholic school in Costa Mesa and experienced MTM first hand at a very young age. Art made me feel empowered, creative, and capable. MTM came into my life at a time when life was forcing me to grow up quicker than I imagined. Through art, I felt the freedom to express what I couldn’t articulate at the time.

I’m 30 now and still find art to be my voice.

My husband recently introduced me to a client of his who happens to work for Meet The Masters locally. When I met her, she was standing there in a paint covered MTM apron with the biggest smile on her face. In this moment, all of my childhood memories came flooding back and I couldn’t help but feel emotional. I honestly didn’t realize that the program was still around!

Since our meeting a few weeks ago, I have felt the desire to reach out and express gratitude towards this epic program. If I can be of service in any way, I would love to give back. I’m a mother to an 18 month old and work part time as a dental assistant. While I love my work, I recognize that my heart’s voice wants me to spread the power of creative expression and I would be a fool not to honor that.

Thank you for reading this and I hope this message finds you well.

Sincerely,
Natalie Stafford

Everyone Loves MTM!

Working as a volunteer with the Meet the Masters program at my son’s school this past year has been such a great experience. I believe art programs help children build confidence and instill a sense of wonder and curiosity that helps foster creativity. Meet the Masters is so wonderful because it gives young children a taste of art fundamentals while teaching them about the many styles and techniques of artists from around the world and from different time periods. There is nothing more rewarding than seeing each child in my son’s first grade class create their own unique masterpiece!
