My Students

My students are amazing and creative learners. They come from low income hardworking families. Many of my students do not have basic art supplies to complete assignments and grow creatively. Distant learning has been very stress for them and they deserve supplies to help them revive stress of being home that also enable learning.

My Project

My students are stuck home and staying safe with the stay at home orders. they are missing out on sharing their thoughts and feelings with friends and family.

My students will be joining a long tradition of creating and mailing art.

These cards have room for them to draw and write so they can share their thoughts and feelings with all their loved ones that they can not see during this very hard time for everyone. They can create and share like many famous artists of the past and join in an amazing tradition.

My students are important and I want to remind them of that!
