My Project

In our inclusive classroom, we aim to honor diversity through art. By providing multicultural supplies like paints, markers, dobbers, stamp pads, and lacing beads, we empower our students to express themselves authentically while fostering cultural appreciation.

These tools enable students to explore and celebrate diverse cultures through self-portraits, traditional motifs, and symbolic designs.

With paints, markers, dobbers, stamp pads, and lacing beads, students develop creativity, fine motor skills, and cultural understanding.

Your donation ensures our students have access to essential art supplies that reflect their identities and enrich their educational experience. Together, let's cultivate a classroom environment where diversity is celebrated through creativity and unity in art.

Ms. Christina will only receive her materials if this project is fully funded by July 21.
