My Project

North Branford High School aims to nurture creativity and critical thinking through comprehensive art education. In line with this commitment, we seek funding to acquire essential art supplies to support our students' skills in architectural drawing and perspective.

Art supplies are vital tools for students to explore creativity and develop technical proficiency.

With these resources, students can delve deeper into perspective and architectural drawing principles, creating detailed artworks. Offering a wide range of supplies allows students to experiment and discover their interests in architectural drawing.

Perspective drawing and architectural rendering require technical precision and creative imagination. With proper art supplies, students engage in hands-on learning, understanding spatial relationships and composition effectively. Tools like drawing boards, pencils, charcoal, and colored pencils enable accurate sketches and exploration of different perspectives, enhancing visual storytelling abilities.

Art supplies serve as catalysts for creativity and innovation. Access to diverse materials empowers students to experiment and express their artistic voices. Through exploration, students can push boundaries, incorporating imaginative elements into their work. This nurtures creativity alongside technical skills, preparing students for future careers in architecture and design.

Acquiring art supplies is an investment in our students' education and future success. By providing necessary tools, we empower them to develop architectural drawing skills to their fullest potential. With your support, we can create an enriching learning environment where students thrive as artists and innovators. Thank you for considering our proposal and for your commitment to fostering creativity in education!

Ms. Maghini will only receive her materials if this project is fully funded by August 3.
