My art budget it typically around $200 and with roughly 800 children and an extremely transient population, that barely supplies us with paper. Your donation will help my students explore art in a way that many of them have never been given the opportunity to before. We aspire to do four to five big projects per grade level this school year. That will be four to five projects for each Kindergarten class through to the fifth grade classes. These projects will include exploring new media like clay as well as chalk pastels. We plan to create clay animals, pendants and aliens as well as to learn more about colors through drawing/coloring with oil/chalk pastels. I imagine that this year of exposure will open their eyes to the world of art, as all the students may not be great at drawing but might be awesome at working with pastels. They will leave this program at the end of the year with a greater self-confidence and assurance that they are not failures. This year, they are bound to succeed in at least one discipline. Can you imagine what that does to a struggling child's self worth? I can :)
