Peace Rock Garden

Help me give my students acrylic paint to create a desert landscape rock garden in the front of our school!

My Project

How lucky am I to have such kind and caring students?! These attributes shine in the art room, from the words spoken to the masterpieces created. We would love to have some acrylic paint for a rock garden we are forming in the front of our school. The theme for our garden is "Peace", which is very timely given that it is "Peace Week" in our school district and we just remembered and honored Dr. King on Monday.

Help us to make our dream come true and fund this special painting project!

The students are excited after seeing the rocks come in, but we can't complete our garden without paint or sealer so the rock art survives the elements. Thank you in advance; we hope you are as enthusiastic about this endeavor as we are!
