Art with a Heart
This project is a collaboration between Scripps Memorial Hospital Encinitas (under the direction of the Arts for Healing Program, Gerrit Greve, Coordinator), and local schools, as a community outreach program.

Barrio Logan / East Village Arts District (BL/EV)
Barrio Logan East Village Arts District (BL/EV) exists to create and fund a district dedicated to making art and nurturing artists and thereby provide work and economic opportunity. An opportunity exists to link cultures and spark diverse dialogue centered in creativity. The opportunity exists to create an arts district that is an economic engine and a piece of art, conceptual art built from scattered materials and buildings and potential. Art creates quality of life and promotes creativity in multiple disciplines. BL/EV as an arts district has the potential to encourage economic development based on culture and the integration of its rich history without dislocating the artists.

Arts Education
Synergy Art Foundation collaborates with local organizations to provide and promote arts education to children and youth and to pioneer new arts educational programs that may combine two or three disciplines, such as the arts and nature, art and environment, art and science.
Classics 4 Kids
Synergy Art Foundation retained two professional art instructors to conduct visual arts workshops with multiple local school children. The focus of the program was Impressionism culminating in a classical music performance reaching over 1000 students.

Arts For Healing
The philanthropic organization works with healthcare facilities and community organizations to grow and nurture arts for healing programs.

Community Arts Programs
Synergy Art Foundation partners with local communities to undertake meaningful community art projects not only to beautify our towns but also to strengthen and build our communities.
Legacies
Arts collaborations with elders and youth in Solana Beach. 
Solana Beach Coastal Rail Trail Public Art
Local artist, Betsy Schultz, was commissioned to create a public artwork for the City of Solana Beach's Rail Trail project. The Rail Trail was designed and executed by Glen Schmidt's landscape archictural firm. Betsy has designed a gateway to the trail comprising two arches. The arches will welcome visitors to Solana Beach and into the Coastal Rail Trail. The bottom of each column will be covered with rounded beach rocks and fossils to represent the beach cliffs. The earthy colors gradually becoming brighter as they reach the top, representing the progression of Solana Beach history. The brightest colors at the top reflect the vibrancy of the present-day Solana Beach. Imagery such as fossils, shells, birds, fish, farming, small signs, word tiles, historical tiles, as well as metal and ceramic artifacts will artistically tell the history of Solana Beach. Like all community projects, participation of the owners and users (residents of Solana Beach) make the project more successful. Synergy Art Foundation has contributed to the lighting of the artwork.
