My Project

At our high school, our art students, Be Kind club and National Art Honors Society always take some time to create things to share with our community. This helps foster meaningful purpose and relationships between our students and the community in which they live. These glazes will be used for creating ornaments to donate to local animal shelters, earth day bee containers to bring awareness to supporting our pollinators and the importance of our local farms gardens and ceramic charms that will be donated to local organizations like Real Food CT as a thank you for all the food they donate to our local food pantries.
