Crayons and Paint Make You What You Ain't

Help me give my students the art supplies they need for their creativity with paint.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Gates's classroom raised $424

This project is fully funded

My Project

The items I'm requesting make the difference between getting to create with paint . . . or not. My goal is that they can experience creating art with more than crayons and colored pencils.

They are eager to learn and try new things but as a small school, our budget for supplies doesn't enable them to explore different medias and they are always anxious for new opportunities.

I am hopeful that with paint supplies, they will be able to make art that we can display in the halls and help decorate our school with their work.

Any donations are truly appreciated by all as it is obvious how important the necessary supplies are to create with paint.

Ms. Gates Tulsa School of Arts and Sciences Grades 9-12
