My Project

I am excited to present the second installment of Swansboro Elementary School's Art Club for the 2023-2024 school year! To achieve our vision this year, we are seeking support for acquiring essential art supplies, inspiring art books, and sustaining a conducive environment with snacks during our art sessions.

This year, Art Club is focusing on enriching the art club experience by ensuring our students have a diverse range of art supplies, including their own sketchbook, a wider variety of paint, and facilitating a space to store all of their creations.

We want to establish a dedicated art library with inspiring books on art history, techniques, and various art movements.

We hope to create a comfortable and nourishing environment for creativity by offering snacks during our art club meetings.
