Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

Please consider replenishing basic art supplies for back to school Art in August. My students love to paint and draw and there is nothing better than fresh art supplies to get the creativity flowing to kick off the new school year! The supplies will provide multi-sensory learning opportunities to engage learning and foster independent creativity. The assortment of papers will be used to create and display student art work. Students will enjoy using the vibrant paint colors that enable art to be painted in high contrast for students with low vision.
