Glass blowing event to help bring art to Detroit-area classrooms

Carol Hofgartner’s mission is simple.

She was able to see the world because she followed her passion of art and music, a passion that started when the Dearborn native was back in elementary school.

Now, Hofgartner says, she’s able to give back and help children get in touch with their creative side.

“Every day of the week we’re in the schools,” said Hofgartner, co-founder of Art Road along with her husband, Stephen. “What we do is create the base of imagination and set them free.”

Hofgartner’s  Livonia-based nonprofit, whose mission is to bring art classes back to Metro Detroit schools without them, is looking to get a big boost from a fundraiser this weekend in Detroit.
