P.S. Arts Volunteer Highlight Beatriz Becerra

by Joella Still, Volunteer Coordinator

Working with and getting to know Beatriz Becerra has been such a delightful experience. She is always lending a helping hand to P.S. ARTS, especially during our festivals and Family Art Nights! So this month we would like to highlight her for exceptional work and the time she’s dedicated to our students and families!


I am so glad that I found P.S. ARTS and have the opportunity to volunteer. I take great delight in watching the kids create and share.

Beatriz Becerra is our featured volunteer for August 2019Tell us about yourself!

I grew up in Southern California and I love the beach—the ocean air, boogie boarding, and bonfires. I love color and shapes and enjoy finding art in my environment—nature, geometrics, and chaos. Many schools and public squares have sculptures, lights, and colorful gardens.

Growing up, I went to a private school where we did not have art class. I always spent my allowance on buying craft materials and fabric and would enjoy creating things for my Barbie dolls. Art offers a mental vacation that is easy to immerse your mind into and rejuvenate yourself. I enjoy visiting museums and take my family as much as they will let me.

What is your favorite part about volunteering with P.S. ARTS or what has been your favorite experience?

I am so glad that I found P.S. ARTS and have the opportunity to volunteer. I take great delight in watching the kids create and share. It only takes a couple of hours for them to get comfortable with painting and sharing with pride their inspiration and interpreting their art. It is a creative and encouraging place for kids to imagine and expand their horizons. I’m so proud to be a part of these events and witness the magic of art.


Thank you, Beatriz! Volunteers like Beatriz Becerra are a vital part of what makes P.S. ARTS programs succeed. Sign up to volunteer today!
