The range of supplies for visual arts will allow students to co-develop an arts program at our high school, where we currently lack the budget to hire a full-time art teacher. They will be able to engage in the development of long-term visual arts projects while many, as newcomers to the United States, will have an opportunity to strengthen their communication and English literacy skills. While creating visual and tactile representations, my students take part in a simultaneous rehearsal and troubleshooting of their literacy skills through self-expression. They will be able to plan, design, and execute a self-guided art piece - as well as collaborate with a group of peers to create a community-sourced installation. These art supplies will offer my students a new medium with which to understand themselves, communicate with each other, and become creative problem solvers in our larger community.
