Using Our Creative Minds as Artists

Help me give my students art canvases and supplies to use their creative brains.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Stellmacher's classroom raised $156

My Project

I have the sweetest second graders around! They are so eager to learn, create and share. We will paint, using large canvases to engage and develop our brains.

Art not only expands our creative minds, but makes our hearts happy.

My second graders will be so excited to share their art with one another, and ultimately give it to mom and dad as a gift. Art done on canvas can last for years to come and bring back so many wonderful memories of their second grade experience. May their little hearts be filled with joy seeing the artwork they created.
