Newest TSG Tees

Each TSG Quote Tee is inspired by the meaning of the simple good of our students. Each year we select students' messages of 'the simple good' to put on our quote tees for a limited series release. The tees represent the various communities we serve and are selected through a public vote in order to amplify the voices of our youth & support their TSG Youth Art Programs. 

This "Beauty In Everything" Tee is inspired by TSG Youth Ambassador, Precious D., from Hyde Park. Check out her meaning of #thesimplegood below!

My ‘simple good’ is to find the beauty in everything because it allows us to appreciate the little things. My ‘simple good’ was inspired by a conversation I had with a friend about the importance of keeping a positive mindset and finding beauty in all situations. I depicted my ‘simple good’ in my art by making the picture focus on the beauty in the photo. I wanted the picture to seem a little more dramatic and make the flowers pop more as that’s the beauty that came out of the photo for me. I plan on using my meaning of the ‘simple good’ to improve my community and change the world by teaching and showing others to always find the beauty in things even in a world of negativity. This is important to me because nowadays there is so much negativity and a lot of the time we try to sit and dwell on things we can’t change. Instead we can find the good or beauty of a situation even when it doesn’t work in our favor.

Mon bien simple est la paix et l'amour parce que j'aime vivre dans la paix. Mon bien simple a été inspiré par l'art parce que j'aime peidre. J'ai représenté mon bien simple dans mes œuvres d'art par en peigmant un symbol. J'ai l'intention d'utiliser mon sens de bien simple pour améliorer ma communauté et changer le monde par la paix parce que c'est bien d'etre en paix. C'est important pour moi parce que le fais de vivre les gens heureux me rond aussi heureux. Une bonne question simple que vous poseriez aux autres est : Pourquoi les gens m'aime pas faire la paix?

English Translation (Love and Peace) 

My simple good is peace and love because I like to live in peace. My simple good was inspired by art because I love to paint. I have represented my simple good in
my artwork by painting a symbol. I intend to use my meaning of simple good to improve my community and change the world through peace because it is good to be at peace. It's important for me because having happy people makes me happy too. A good simple question you would ask others is: Why don't people like me to make peace?

This "Small Beautiful Moments" Tee is inspired by TSG Youth Ambassador, Jazleen C., from Wicker Park. Check out her meaning of #thesimplegood below!

My 'simple good' was inspired by small beautiful moments. I took it when I was walking with my Grandma and 7 dogs. Even with the chaos (I am sure you are imagining by walking 7 dogs), I saw this sunset and wanted to capture the moment. I plan on using my meaning of the simple good to improve my community and change the world by pausing to know that it's important to see beautiful things, even when things a busy!

Our Limited Edition TSG x Kayla Mahaffey x Chicago Bulls collab t-shirt was created for our 8th Annual Hunt for Good Fundraiser to support TSG Mindfulness-based Youth Art Programs. 

Artwork by Nationally renown Chicago-based Artist, Kayla Mahaffey. Kayla's design has a fiery vigor to it, to represent the determination it takes to play the game of basketball. Her artworks illustrate a transitional period of overcoming hardships and finding new life pathways. Her design for this t-shirt borrows from that idea, by keeping 'simple good' themes like imagination, determination, growth and resilience alive.

All proceeds go towards TSG Social Emotional Learning based Youth Art Residency Programs to empower and embolden the possibility of our youth to become positive activists to change our world.
