Basic Art Supplies Don't Come Cheap!

My students need basic, good quality art supplies to create their beautiful artworks.

My Students

Talented visual art students need supplies! Since art supplies are consumed with each project there are never enough supplies. My students need quality art supplies to use, so that they can freely express themselves creatively!

My students have creative abilities above and beyond the average child.

These students are labeled "Talented in Visual Arts" by the state of Louisiana. These students are driven to create. I work with small groups in several rural Louisiana schools. Many of students at these schools are considered at or below the poverty level and art supplies are not provided by the schools.

My Project

My students need tag board and drawing paper they can use to create works of art and high quality contest entries. They need to have supplies readily available so that they can express themselves freely. High quality papers will allow them to explore a variety of media and techniques for art production.

Art is an essential part of learning and helps students develop important critical thinking skills.

These students will be the artists of they future, and we need to provide them with a variety of art experiences to develop their unique talents.
