Because of your donation, every student now has their own sketchbook and access to quality drawing materials. The moment these supplies arrived, the room buzzed with excitement — students flipped through their new sketchbooks in disbelief that they each had one to call their own. That moment of joy set the tone for everything that has followed.\r\n\r\nEach day now begins with a sketchbook warm-up, a time when students can freely draw, experiment, and express themselves before diving into larger projects. These sketchbooks have become deeply personal creative journals — places where students can take risks, practice techniques, and watch their own growth unfold page by page. It's remarkable to see how this simple daily routine has transformed their confidence and engagement with art.\r\n\r\nThe impact of your gift reaches far beyond the materials themselves. My students are discovering their own artistic voices and realizing what they're capable of. They take pride in their progress, support one another, and approach each new challenge with curiosity and courage.\r\n\r\nThank you for helping make this happen. Your generosity has sparked genuine creativity and given my students the tools — and belief — to see themselves as artists.","fullyFundedDate":1753383360237,"projectUrl":"project/creating-confidence-one-sketch-at-a-tim/9445955/","projectTitle":"Creating Confidence, One Sketch at a Time","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Higgins","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9681988_orig.jpg?crop=960,960,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1723904672077","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9681988"},{"teacherId":9681988,"projectId":8666808,"letterContent":"I am so excited to share an update and a huge thank you for supporting our project, \"Entrepreneurship Through Art.\" Because of your generosity, my advanced art students now have the supplies they need — including a button-making machine, sticker paper, and other materials — to create, market, and sell their own designs.\r\n\r\nIn addition to creating their products, students had the incredible opportunity to hear from a local artist and entrepreneur who spoke with them about the business side of art. This real-world connection helped them see even more clearly how creativity and entrepreneurship can go hand in hand.\r\n\r\nWe are still working hard to make our field trip to the North Carolina Museum of Art happen before the end of the school year.
