My Project

At our elementary school, we serve a low socioeconomic population; most of them do not have pencils or paper in their homes. These supplies will allow my students to create beautiful works of art they can share proudly. In addition, there are several Art Contests coming up that the student are VERY interested in competing in, and to do that, we need the supplies to make their work stand out!

I had this project open on my desktop computer, and one of the fourth grade girls read it and was OVERJOYED at the list of supplies!

She told the entire fourth grade and they were buzzing with excitement about the possibilities! Some of them went so far as to tell me what they had in mind to create! Having the right tools is important for any job- but it is especially true with art tools and supplies.

The students will use the supplies to create individual works of art. They will also collaborate to create art for common areas in our school. The main use will be for our end of year Black History project. They will be designing and creating a unique piece that represents all they have learned during Black History Month and in their classes. Thank you for taking the time to read this and to consider helping our Art Studio.
