My Project

These rugs will be utilized in a reading community room that will serve 373 preschoolers and kindergarteners. We are a new early childhood building and are looking to enhance what was an old library to now a reading community room for all.

These rugs will help the reading room look like a cozy, welcoming, and warm safe space for children to read independently, buddy read, or in a large group with their teacher.

These rugs will bring a lot of color and happiness to the room for our youngest learners.
