In our art room, every student is an artist—and every artist deserves the tools to express themselves fully and confidently. To support our growing program, we are requesting permanent markers, colored pencils, skin tone pencils, pencil sharpeners, and pouches to keep these materials organized and ready to use.
These supplies will allow students to explore a range of drawing techniques and express their creativity in vibrant, personal ways.
Permanent markers help with bold outlines and mixed media projects. Colored pencils are a staple for layering and detail. Skin tone pencils are especially important—they ensure students can accurately and respectfully represent themselves and others in their work, which builds confidence, identity, and empathy.
To make sure every student can work independently, we’re also asking for individual pencil sharpeners and pouches so students can keep their drawing tools organized and ready to use—no more waiting in line or lost supplies.
With your support, we can provide every young artist in our classroom with the materials they need to create freely, see themselves in their work, and take pride in their art.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
