Mrs. Olson from Bertha MN is requesting art supplies through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Creating Exceptional Artists!

Help me give my students the art supplies necessary to expose them to a wide range of artistic mediums and styles. Epoxy resin is a new and exciting art medium that most students have not been exposed to.

My Students

We have the best students! They are hard working, eager and so thankful for every opportunity to broaden their knowledge and skills. In the art room, they are so good at celebrating each other's differences and encouraging others to keep going, even if their idea isn't going as planned. Our art room is calm, comfortable and exploding with possibility!

My students are special because of all the un-discovered potential they hold!

Every day I am amazed at their clever ideas and unique perspectives. They enjoy spending time in this rich and inviting environment that encourages them to do the impossible!

My Project

Creating great artists takes a variety of high quality supplies! In our rural community, exposure to the Arts is limited, but we have so many talented and eager young students. The donation of these supplies will ensure that they have access to the best art mediums available. Our positive learning environment helps students to become comfortable with their uniqueness, as well as their mistakes. When offered many different types of art styles and a wide range of project ideas, students are sure to grow in their creative abilities! I can't wait to see what they create, thanks to your donations!
