My Project

My students are from all over the world and they have talents beyond belief. Every day I am amazed at what diverse experiences they bring to the classroom. They are also challenged by their socioeconomic status, language, learning differences, and much more--they inspire me every day. We are in need of supplies that will help them create in a variety of media and in a space that matches their needs.

These art supplies will give my students access to explore art in new and different media-which they much deserve.

We are looking to try some new projects for my students with special needs. We have an art class that partners general education students with those with special needs and the pairs work together to make art. These supplies will be used to help the students collaborate and all access art making together.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
