My Project

To me, my students are very special. I make that bold statement because although they all come from low-income families, their attendance is high, they try their very best, and never give up. They are resilient and are very determined to succeed. My students are very creative and exposing them to visual art at an early stage will not only strengthen their talent/creativity, but it would give them something extra to be proud of.

Art is essential and unfortunately when school budgets are cut, art is the very first subject to be left out of the schedule.

Please help my students by providing the needed art supplies for them to explore their creative side.
