Clay Tools Are Retiring, Looking For New Hires

Help me give my students tools for air dry clay. We have had a blast with the tools we had for several years but we need replacements for our busy little hands.

My Project

Our young students have had good times with our clay tools and the tools have earned their retirement. We hope to have more air dry clay next year for more fun but the number of students and the cost of the clay makes it difficult to have enough tools for all the artists in our art room. Please consider donating to our art room so we can keep the fun rolling.

Our artists look forward to using clay to make awesome 3 D models of their creations.

Animals, bowls, cups and vehicles are some of our past creations. We hope to continue the good time tradition of making clay models with your help.
