Shrek the Musical Jr. Painting Supplies

Help me give my students painting supplies to create art and sets for their musical!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Brooks's classroom raised $228

This project is fully funded

My Project

This year the drama program is suffering from a decrease in funding, and we are looking for alternative ways to acquire the needed supplies to make our show come to life. The students are very excited to begin painting the set pieces, and the design team has been hard at work but we are missing some crucial painting tools.

We are very lucky to have made a deal with a local paint supplier to donate several gallons of high quality paint to the drama program at a heavily reduced cost, but the additional tools such as paint rollers, brushes, paint trays, tape, and containers to store excess paint would help our students be more successful in creating their artwork.

Please support the arts and make this project a reality.
