Quality Colored Pencils

Help me give my students the drawing tools they need to make beautiful art!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. King's classroom raised $715

This project is fully funded

My Project

My middle school artists are incredibly creative and talented, and I want to provide them with higher quality materials than what we currently have!

Prismacolor colored pencils will allow my students to more thoroughly explore drawing techniques and color theory.

Our current colored pencils are fairly limited in their blending capabilities, and I have so many students who wish to bring more interest and pop to their work.

For many of my students, this is their first exposure to an art class, and tracing tablets will help ease some of their anxieties of recreating their perfect rendition of a rough draft to the final draft.

Art allows students to express themselves in new and creative ways, and I want to provide them the best tools to do so.
