Help me give my students new paint, canvas, and air dry clay. These materials will help to enhance the learning experience of self-expression and exposure to new art-making techniques. Their art will be a keepsake treasure.
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 Students
I am the new Visual Arts teacher at a public elementary school. My first year teaching at this school was through distance learning. I would describe my school culture as inclusive, diverse, caring, strong, and resilient. My students are wonderful, brilliant, and eager to learn!
My Project
Supporting and appreciating the arts is like watering a plant. Children learn in different ways and your donation will help provide clay for hand-building techniques that benefit students that may not enjoy drawing or painting but can express themselves through ceramics and sculpture design. I am requesting paint and canvas for my art program because our current supply is expired; the paint cracks after it dries. With these materials requested, my students will make keepsake art they can look back on and have fond memories of their childhood education.
