Art a la Carte is a free, arts-enrichment activity delivery program. Through a partnership with Tioga County Food for Families, TAC brings art activities and supplies to families who utilize Summer Meal Sites throughout Tioga County, N.Y. Traditionally they have served Berkshire, Richford, and Waverly. With support from artwork purchases from Everyday Life, Every Day Art, they hope to expand this program to serve more parts of Tioga County.
