Artsy Printmaking for Grades 1-8

Help me give my students a variety of experiences in printmaking with Gelli Arts printing plates, safety inking plates for carving blocks, and a document reader in which to demo with.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Giessner's classroom raised $588

My Project

I'm excited to be registering for my first project with DonorsChoose! I teach elementary and middle school art and strive to give my students many experiences outside of drawing.

Printmaking with Gelli Plates is fun and allows students to be successful.

Excitement is high when students see printmaking materials on our tables. These items will allow students to each have a plate and brayer, which will eliminate wait time and increase art making experiences.

My students and I thank you in advance for your time and consideration in helping with this project.
