Materials Management for Efficient Art Creation!

Help me give my students four rolling carts to help manage art materials!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Severs's classroom raised $251

This project is fully funded

My Students

My student artists are yearning to engage with new artworks and reading materials. When I say "smartest," they say, "artists!" My students understand the importance of finding meaning and reasoning behind their work. Art is not only about creating artwork from paper and pencil but being able to read and do research about artists and artwork that help them understand their place in the world. Art is not just about papers and pencils, it is about mixed media as well as research!

My Project

Organization in the art room is an ongoing process! With the help of four rolling carts, our art room would be able to separate materials for each student table and by each grade level. This would mean that there would be less clutter in the art room and an easier way to get right to creating instead of cleaning and searching for materials so much!

My art room is home to hundreds of students, which means that materials management and room layout is crucial!

With the help of organizational carts, my students would be able to better care for materials and their classroom, and allow for more creativity.
