"This [program] really brings students out...Some of the students who are so quiet really come alive when they get involved in these art projects."

Sandra Beard

Meet The Masters has a twenty-year history of providing interactive, multi-media art education to elementary school and homeschool students nationwide. As California's leading art program, MTM has introduced Monet, van Gogh and 40 other Master Artists to more than 2,000,000 Kindergarten thru 8th grade (and sometimes 12th grade) public, private and homeschooled students.

Bonnie Steele began Meet The Masters as a volunteer project for her daughter's sixth grade class at Del Lago School in Mission Viejo. Art education was suffering cut-backs, and Steele's intense interest in art, along with her background as a credentialed teacher and exhibited artist, sparked the idea for Meet The Masters. While teaching her program Steele discovered that sixth grade was sometimes too late to reach children. By the age of 12 some students had already decided they either had creative talent or didn't. She began to see the need to begin the program at an earlier age.

The program's popularity spread quickly, and today Meet the Masters employs 45 teachers. The program runs smoothly with the help of more than 2,500 volunteers, who also feel art is important for their children, thus donating their time to teach and learn right along with the students. Though it's roots are in California, MTM has spread to every region of the U.S. and as many as 10 foreign countries
