Odds and Ends Visual Art

Help me give my students the odds and ends that hold art supplies and add color paper for our visual art classes.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Thain's classroom raised $878

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

These supplies will allow my visual art class to fill in the gaps in our supplies. Our classes are 30 minutes and that makes moving around supplies more interesting.

The blank watercolor postcards are for a project that will allow my students to paint Utah landmarks.

The pencil boxes will allow my students to keep our special art supplies, like the watercolor pencils and charcoal, separate from other pencils in the room. They will also help to keep the classroom running smoothly by getting art supplies where they need to be quickly.

The other odds and ends are to keep all the pencils sharpened throughout the week and to help display visual art samples.
