Entrepreneurship
Turn your ideas into action. Our Teen Entrepreneurship program empowers young creators to launch their own ventures, from art-based businesses to digital startups.

Through mentorship, feedback, and real-world applications, “Sketches to Successes” celebrates the creative journey and shows teens how their art can make an impact beyond the page.

We empower young people to explore their passions, develop their talents, and find purpose in the creative process. By connecting traditional art with modern tools and entrepreneurial thinking, we aim to inspire a generation of imaginative, capable, and driven individuals ready to make their mark.
Nspire Resources
Art History
Hello! My name is Frida Kahlo. I was born in Coyoacán, Mexico, in 1907. At 13, I studied at the National Preparatory School, dreaming of becoming a doctor and loving art, history, and politics. At 17, my life changed after a bus accident left me with serious injuries. While bedridden, I began painting more than ever. My art doesn’t just show what I see, it expresses what I feel. Painting is my way of living and telling my story. Welcome to my world!
