Crayola® Imagine Arts AcademyTM Anticipates Increasing Demand as Parents Seek Educational Programming

MONTREAL – Crayola® Imagine Arts AcademyTM– a top art enrichment franchise is gearing up for continued growth as parents look for ways to keep their children engaged and learning. Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, children and parents have been struggling with distance learning, inhibiting opportunities for creativity and imagination. The demand for a creative outlet has skyrocketed due to parents’ desires to get their children in extracurricular activities, summer camps, and after-school programs.

“Many schools are currently spending less time teaching children how to explore their creative abilities, which are essential during early childhood development for emotional maturity and general well-being,” said President and Co-Founder, Shafik Mina.

Crayola® Imagine Arts AcademyTM is unique because it is not just an arts and crafts program.

It teaches children skills of creativity, and imagination, as well as an awareness for the world around them. Children in the program will not only learn art techniques, but be exposed to topics including cultural awareness, animal conservation and design careers.

“There are many states where art is being cut; schools don’t have the resources to spend on the arts and they are losing out on something powerful,” said Mina. “Crayola® Imagine Arts Academy’s goal is to get children back into a routine of using their imaginations to learn empathy and understand imperative creative processes.”

Crayola® Imagine Arts AcademyTM is targeting all 50 states for its franchise opportunity, seeking professionals who display a strong business acumen. In addition, he or she must be an excellent operator, detail oriented, and be able to manage a team. Alternately, he or she can be a great salesperson and marketing professional.
