My Students

My students love to express themselves creatively. A lesson reaches another level when they are able to connect artistically. We like to exercise all parts of our brain. It helps them stay connected and keeps the excitement alive!

My students are hungry for learning.

They love to close the books and have discussions. They want to learn about the real world around them. Many of them aren't able to visit museums or see culture other than their own, but when we discuss art they can be transported to a whole new world.

My Project

With these art supplies (oil pastels, markers, and paper) the students will be able to complete art projects in class. We study Native Americans, animal adaptations, solar system, cultures around the world and so much more. With these supplies we'll be able to read and explore different ways of life. We'll be able to create art that goes with our lessons.

Donations will help out class feel that they matter.

These kids love to learn and are eager to share their ideas with anyone that will listen. Exploring art gives them a voice that might not come out otherwise. Your donation will allow them to enjoy the learning process.
