My Project

This year our art materials are starting to run out! Help restock our art cabinet.

I am asking for more of our consumables.

We are finally reaching the end of our gallon paint jugs and need more paint! Which means the students have been able to paint and paint and paint.

I am also asking for gem stickers, paint markers, lamination paper, magnetic dots, and standing mirrors. I have noticed what the students have been drawn towards this year and I would love to have more of these supplies for them to use and create with. The lamination paper will allow me to laminate some of their projects so that they can last and not get crumpled up in backpacks.

The students have been very interested in our hand mirrors so I thought it would be fun to have standing mirrors at the tables where they can get another angle of what they are creating. It will bring their 3D creations to life.

All of the art projects encourage the students to be creative, think outside the box, and work on their fine motor skills. These students are covid babies and have been missing out on activities that really allow them to develop these skills. By having access to these materials they will have less limitation on what they can make and create.
