My Project

I love teaching my students how to repurpose things that would fill up our landfills or harm our local sea life into awesome art!

Although we use 80 percent recycled materials,

the Papier Mache Mask, Acrylic Pads, and Acrylic paints will help with attachment and embellishments to what they create.

I also volunteer my time for an after-school kid's art club as a creative outlet for some of our youth who wouldn't otherwise be to participate in art during normal school hours.

Our goal is to host a youth-only craft fair in our community.
