My Students

"Every child is an artist," was once said by the famous Pablo Picasso himself. With your help and resources, each of my students will have the opportunity to bring out and enhance their artistic sides! How exciting!

I am a 2nd grade teacher to 30 amazing artists who need and would love your help!

Our school is a Title 1 school located in an area of New York City where there is high poverty. Free breakfast/lunch is provided for all students at our school. The students are eager to learn and come to school with a smile on their faces each day and you can help make it happen!

My Project

With your support, my students will be able to bring their imagination and ideas to life by creating beautiful works of art in so many different ways! They will be able to visualize and express their ideas through paintings using watercolors. They will then be able to laminate and preserve their artwork using the clear, self-adhesive plastic covering! I will also be able to display their works of art on the wall by using the reusable mounting tabs. At their age, they are constantly drawing and creating images of people, animals, and other creatures that that have eyes. What better way to bring a creature to life than to add googly eyes? They love it and it also adds more flavor to their pieces.

I have creative artists in my classroom, but unfortunately, with many of the budget cuts this year, we were left with fewer art classes.

That doesn't stop our class from exploring and creating beautiful artwork! But we need your help! Please help us get some basic supplies so my students can enjoy and experience art once again! Thank you so much!
