Meet the Team

Eli Lacey

Founder and CEO  

Hello!  My name is Eli Lacey and I am a senior at The Lawrenceville school. During the pandemic, I realized that many people suffer from anxiety and depression simply because of a lack of socialization. I wanted to do something to help. I decided to start A Heart For Art. I have always had a deep passion for art and I decided to use this passion for the betterment of the young and the old.
