My Project

I want o give everyone of my art students an opportunity to create ideas for art projects and that starts with a good sketchbook, and colored pencils. About 80 percent of my students do not have their own basic art supplies and depend on the teachers to have these supplies available. I want them to have their own for health reasons and personal since every student will use the sketchbook also to write their own stories. I'm so excited to be able to get these items for my artists and eliminate some stress and anxiety for the students who can't afford their own art supplies.
