Established by a retired Elementary School teacher and Reading Specialist, "Thriftique" is Lisa Chierici's way of continuing to support children by raising funds for Arts education. Countless studies prove that education in music, dance, drama, and visual arts helps children develop physically, mentally and emotionally. From fine motor skills to comparing and contrasting, to analyzing and problem-solving, to self-confidence, the arts help children to learn and to feel better about themselves and about learning. For many it provides the incentive they need to stay in school.
