At Shineh Art Studio, our young artists are creating original works — and choosing to make them matter. Every piece sold funds reforestation, animal rescue, and ocean cleanup. This is student-led art with purpose: beautiful to own, powerful to give.

We spent significant time researching which organizations are truly transparent, efficient, and accountable. We verified each and we chose only organizations where we were satisfied that donations make a real and measurable difference.
A portion of every sale goes to deeply vetted nonprofits across three causes we care about:
Reforestation
100% of donations go directly to conservation. Over 50 million acres protected across 62 countries.
America's oldest national conservation nonprofit. Strong national and local tree planting programs.
Urban tree planting serving our DC/MD/VA region directly.
Animal Rescue
The nation's largest no-kill animal sanctuary, partnering with over 5,500 shelters across the country.
Policy-focused advocacy protecting millions of animals across factory farms, laboratories, wildlife, and domestic pets.
Montgomery County Humane Society
Our local community shelter, serving Montgomery County, Maryland directly.
Earth & Ocean Cleanup
Has removed over 15 million kilograms of plastic since 2018 using satellite-tracked systems.
Runs the International Coastal Cleanup program and advocates for clean water and ocean policy globally.
The leading conservation organization for Maryland's most important waterway, right in our backyard.

We're looking for dedicated enrolled students to manage our Etsy shop each term — scanning artworks, writing descriptions, and tracking sales.
Two to three volunteers are selected per term. This is open exclusively to currently enrolled Shineh Art Studio students.
Responsibilities include:
Apply at the beginning of each term. The same student may reapply and continue. Consistent and regular attendance is essential to this role. Students with a strong attendance record will be the strongest candidates — reliability is one of the most important qualities we look for.
These roles are open to currently enrolled high school students only. SSL hours are not provided for this role. What students gain instead is something harder to earn: the experience of running something real, being trusted with responsibility, and knowing their work directly helped the planet — and a story only they can tell.
Be part of something beautiful
When you purchase from our Etsy shop, you bring an original, hand-made artwork into your home — and help restore our planet at the same time.
