With support from wonderful people such as yourselves my students can experience and enjoy art in a whole new way. They will make connections, become problem solvers, create new inventions, and explore ideas. Art can be an escape, a place where a child can have their voice heard. I want them to know that there is art in life. Making connections to literature, writing, math, science (engineering), and history will help them to see that art surrounds us all. Not everyone will become a professional artist but all of my little artists will become observant and excellent problem solvers in this world. With your help we can equip these children to see the world with potential.
