What is Kids Tag Art?

Kids Tag Art (KTA) is a successful program that integrates fundraising with the practical application of license plate art while inspiring creativity in fifth grade art students. The program begins with a lesson about Florida's specialty license plates including how plate sales benefit specific organizations. Teachers extend the lesson by working with students to design a vanity plate that expresses a cause that interests them. To support the school's art program, parents and the community may purchase the student-created plates. All proceeds from plate sales go back to the art program.

The majority of the funds raised are from businesses and community leaders across Florida who have discovered the value that arts education has in student success. These community champions support Volusia's elementary school art programs through Kids Tag Art sponsorships.

The 2023-2024 school year marked the inaugural year of the Kids Tag Art Program in Volusia County. For the first year of the program, the Office partnered with Sugar Mill Elementary School in Port Orange. For the 2024-2025 school year, 10 additional elementary schools will be added. Additional schools will continue to be invited to participate each year in this fundraising program for the arts.
