In Art They Grow

My students need painting supplies for our new art program.

Hooray! This project is fully funded

Hooray! This project is fully funded

Third Grade teacher with a fantastic new art program and no paint or paper on which to paint.

A few months ago I applied for an art grant. The program is incredible in all of the wonderful techniques it will teach the children. Alas, we won't be able to mix colors and apply them to paper without colors to mix or paper as canvas on which to mix them.

I am in need of tempura paint and several reams of high quality white paper. Paper which will be strong enough to withstand tempura as well as water color paints are needed. Imagine how excited the students will be to see the vivid colors of their art come to life on the paper you have donated and with the paint colors you have provided?

You will make it possible for my students to produce amazing pieces of art. You will make it possible for these students to learn something other than their times tables and reading comprehension. Because of you, these students will access a part of their brain, many won't even know existed.
