Art Is For Everyone

Help me give my students and our building, some much needed new art supplies.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Hofer's classroom raised $493

My Project

I am requesting multi-purpose art supplies for my students. Foam paint is one of my students' favorite art supplies. It is also an engaging sensory experience. Liquid watercolor serves many uses in a classroom and provides numerous unique opportunities for creativity and self-expression. Tape is also a multi-purpose art tool. Not only does it provide opportunities for creativity, but it also helps my students to develop the fine motor skills they will need as they grow.

My students have various special needs, and using multi-sensory materials encourages creativity and self-expression.

The wonderful thing about art and creativity is that there is no right or wrong. It is something that all students can engage in and benefit from.
