Each Year JAMS Apprentice-Artists are matched with local businesses and agencies to create custom art benches. Clients are chosen for their willingness to publicly display their benches and to consult with their apprentice-artist in the design process. If you are interested in becoming a bench client, please contact Van Go at 785-842-3797 or on the web at www.van-go.org.
