In a “rough sense,” the new Maricopa company Van Go 4 Kids is just a painting company. But on a deeper level, it is much more than that.
The company was formed by current Maricopa Unified School District board member Gary Miller.
The premise is to employ artists in the community that may have physical or mental disabilities and not only give them a job but also provide an outlet for them to positively express themselves.
