My Project

Art materials are consumable and art budgets for an entire school don't provide enough materials to meet the needs of all the students without supplementing that budget. We will engage in projects steeped in art history, methods and theories, as well as work on projects that collaborate with regular classroom studies.

My students love creating art and I want to make sure we have ample supplies so that we can hone our skills while inspiring higher order thinking skills and letting our imaginations soar.

Please consider helping us stock the art cupboards with basic supplies such as paper, paints, colored pencils and markers.

Mrs. Murphy will only receive her materials if this project is fully funded by July 27.
