Exploring Art and Literacy

Help me give my students art supplies that are needed to allow them to explore art and literacy as they dive into projects using markers, paint sticks, crayons, and Sharpies, as well as mats to display their artwork.

My Project

By donating to our art and literacy project, you will not only help with supplies to support our art program, but you will also help to foster creativity, enhance academic performance, and develop valuable life skills through the visual arts.

Visual arts promote critical thinking, communication, and problem-solving abilities, while also supporting social and emotional development.

Integrating art with literacy and other disciplines provides a space for self-expression, making connections in learning, cultural understanding, and appreciation for diverse perspectives. Arts integration helps to improve academic performance in areas like reading, writing, and math. To have the supplies needed to support our program would allow our students to explore different media as they engage in learning and create their masterpieces.
