My Project

A new year means fresh ideas from my young leaders. The students I service always have wonderful ideas. I would like to give them a fun way to enjoy the art center. Having options on what they can use to make their thoughts come to life is always a plus.

My goal is to have my students use not only markers and paint, but to also find ways to use stamps, glitter and different crafts to make the classroom and the center come to life!

The paper, paint, aprons, craft projects and art supplies will give my students a different outlet to increase their creativity.
