My Project

Art is an essential part of a well-rounded education, offering students a vital outlet for creativity, self-expression, and emotional growth. My “Paint Markers Please” project seeks funding for three boxes of Posca paint markers, which are an invaluable tool in our classroom. These markers allow for vibrant, detailed work that traditional materials simply can't achieve—especially on special projects like murals, mixed-media pieces, and personal art journals. Students will use these paint markers to bring their imaginations to life with bold color and precision, developing both technical skills and confidence in their artistic voice. With your support, we can give our young artists the resources they need to thrive and take pride in their creations.
