Art Sure Is Sweet!
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Kerksiek's classroom raised $382
This project is fully funded
My Project
Help my students get new supplies to make our art show artworks SWEET this year. We are doing a Kindergarten-5th grade art show case that is themed around sweet treats. Every student will creat a 2D and a 3D piece for our school wide art show. The felt and embroderie thread will help students create sweet sewn pastries, the neon paint will allow clay donuts to come to life with fun icing toppings, the model magic will be used to create donuts and lollipops, the yearn will allow students to create some sweet watermelon weavings. These materials will allow us to take our school wide art show to the next level.
This classroom project was brought to life by Olathe Public Schools Foundation
