School Wide Art Room in Need!

Help me give my students necessary supplies for our school wide Art Room!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Carlos's classroom raised $1,018

This project is fully funded

My Project

Our art room is in need of your help! We need supplies so that our school can have a creative and well-run art room that benefits the entire school.

The students love art and enjoy going to a room that is dedicated to their creativity.

We need paper towels for our watercolor projects. We need Sharpies to outline so that their designs really pop. We need wipes so that we can clean up all the mediums we use and keep the room clean for everyone. We need "How-to-Draw" books so the students can explore art on their own and build their drawing skills after they have completed their projects.

Every student in our school who enters the art room will benefit from these supplies, from TK to 6th graders. Please help us bring visual arts to our kids.
