What is Creativity Week?

Crayola Creativity Week is a free program for schools and homes around the world. Designed to celebrate children’s creativity and the joy it brings to teaching and learning any subject, we’ve partnered with artists, actors, authors, musicians, and even an Olympic athlete, to bring educational content, giveaways, and virtual events to kids and teachers everywhere.

If you have additional questions, we would love to hear from you! Feel free to call or text us at 1-800-CRAYOLA weekdays between 9 AM and 4 PM Eastern Time. If you would prefer to send us an email, visit our contact us page.
