My Project
Markers are affordable, convenient, don’t make a mess, work well with other media and allow you to apply bold color quickly and easily! What’s not to love?! We just never have enough. With our decreasing budget order every year our marker supply has diminished.
My art students are really stepping out of their comfort zones this year and have asked to try alcohol based markers.
Alcohol makes the color vibrant and smooth. It dries quickly, which makes it perfect for blending and layering. It does not ruin paper (because it evaporates instantly). The dye in the marker is dissolved evenly at all times, so you don't need to worry about storing them horizontally. Alcohol-based markers come in a mind-blowing range of colors.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
