Our Team
Sisters Andrea and Chrissy Bell grew up loving to learn. They witnessed a liberal arts education getting more expensive, deprioritized, and less accessible at a moment when the critical engagement with art and culture is more important than ever. With a desire to bring progressive art history classes to a community of passionate learners, they launched Do You Like Art in 2021.
