Props and Costumes to Wow our Community

Help me give my students costumes and props for our upcoming decades concert.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Dent's classroom raised $448

This project is fully funded

My Project

Our scholars are eager to plan their final show for the 2024-2025 school year. We have decided to host a decades concert! In this concert, we will be performing music from as many decades as possible, including, but not limited to the 20s, 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s and 90s.

With this in mind, we wanted to include a few costumes and props from those time periods to help our performance come to life.

There's something about seeing kids dress up according to the time periods that help take the performance to another level.
