My Project

In North Minneapolis, our classroom serves as a beacon of creativity and innovation for students who may have never experienced art in its full spectrum. We are merging science and art through our spring STEAM projects, ensuring equitable access to transformative artistic experiences.

Art transcends boundaries, yet many students in our community face barriers to exploring their creative potential.

Limited access to art supplies restricts their ability to express themselves and engage with the world through artistic endeavors. Your donation of art supplies will break down these barriers, opening doors to a world of possibility for our students.

Contribution's will empower students to:

Explore Creativity: With a diverse range of art supplies at their disposal, students will have the freedom to experiment with different mediums and techniques, nurturing their creative instincts and fostering self-expression.

STEAM Skills: Incorporating science concepts into art projects, students will sharpen their analytical skills, learn to think innovatively, and develop a holistic understanding of STEAM disciplines.

Cultivate Confidence: As they see their ideas come to life through their creations, students will gain confidence in their abilities and develop a sense of pride in their work.

Promote Equity: Access to quality art education should not be determined by zip code or socioeconomic status. Your donation will ensure that every student, regardless of background, has the opportunity to engage in meaningful artistic experiences and realize their full potential.

Foster Community Engagement: Through collaborative projects students will forge connections with their peers, teachers, and the broader community, fostering a sense of belonging and mutual respect.

Your support will not only provide art supplies but also pave the way for a brighter future for our students in North Minneapolis. We can create a more equitable and inclusive learning environment where every student has the opportunity to be creative and thrive.
