Basic art supplies are needed to help my at-risk students be successful in completing the fine arts credit needed for graduation. The art supplies will be used to introduce my students to different mediums and support them in the completion of various art projects to enter in contests and to showcase at parent night in the spring. More than 50% of my students are Native American (Cherokee) and a portion of the art supplies, I am asking for are to engage the students in culturally traditional art projects such as beadwork on a loom, basket making, and leather pouches. The art materials will provide the students the opportunity to express their artistic ideas and to develop an understanding of their Native American culture through studying the history of the art projects they will complete. My students will utilize their knowledge to defend why certain media is used for a project or by a culture and use multiple approaches to begin creative endeavors. By funding this project, you will be helping my students, become well-rounded individuals. The arts are essential in the development of the realms of human behavior which include the physical, emotional, social, and intellectual aspects. Access to the arts prepares my students to be creative, inspirational to others, and critical thinkers. Creating visual arts is essential in helping my students through the pandemic-impacted learning they have had to experience the last few school years by relieving stress and lifting their spirits. When students are emersed in creating art, their minds are stimulated, they embrace mindfulness and experience feelings of accomplishment and pride in their completed artwork.
