COVID-19 UPDATE
Dear Inspire Family,
15 years ago, Inspire opened its doors and began the joyful work of transforming people's lives. It has been a beautiful time and we are so proud of the many accomplishments we've made. Truly the power of Inspire has been to provide a space where people can connect while discovering their inner strengths. As well, we are so honored to have worked with such great community partners like Eva's Heroes, Catholic Charities, SAISD, NEISD, Alpha Home, and Bexar County Juvenile Courts, just to name a few. We are equally proud to have employed so many artists over the years--giving them stable, part-time employment to such important members of our city's fabric.
COVID has hit our beloved community hard. And as a result of the financial stress, we've decided it's only ethical to close our doors. This was a painful decision., but the only one we could make.
Thank you for letting us into your lives. You have made such an impression. You are and will be in our thoughts everyday.
Keep living artfully,
Lisa, and the Staff and Board of Inspire.

A wonderful team of professionals. My granddaughter and I both take art classes here. Their team is a group of highly educated gifted artists. I cannot wait to continue a new session. I have always had a passion for the arts... what better place to learn than with a company that gives to the community as well!

What a joy to work with the students of Eva's Heroes. They had a great time creating South African cave drawings and self-portraits! Inspire always loves seeing their smiling faces.
