My Project

My students make beautiful clay sculptures, vessels, and boxes. Considering the caliber of art that comes from our classroom, these students need insurance that their work will be safe all semester. Currently, we have more students than shelf space. Our current cabinets have doors that no longer close and stay shut.

Please help us keep prying eyes from other courses out of work-in-progress zone!

The storage cabinet and cubby would make our space more efficiently organized, and thus easier to work in.

Because of the donors choose platform and donor's like you, I can supplement our tiny art budget so my students can create award winning works regardless of their home's income level. My most sincere thanks to you!
