Creativity Club For Budding Artists!

Funded Sep 12, 2019

With the generous donations I received, we started an afterschool club that has never before been available at our school. We started a "Creativity Club" and it has beena huge success! Both teachers and students are thrilled! We are currently having around 40 students participate every month, in all different types of art projects.

For our first project, we created angel wings, to represent our thankfulness to the "angels" in out lives. The students worked to paint their individual feathers and then we combined them to create a school art piece. We put the wings up in both our buildings and the students have loved making pictures with them.

For our second project, we created a large tree to fill the school entryway. Students created their own individual leaves to cover the branches. Now, the beautiful tree greets all students and visitors and welcomes them!

Our next project will be creating ocean animals. The students will choose an animal to illustrate and we will begin with black paper and use chalk pastels to draw. The students will learn how to mix and blend the pastels to create richer colors and depth.

I am so proud of the club and the work we are doing and seeing my students get to express their creativity! Thank you again for your support!”

With gratitude,

Ms. King
