  • Celebrate the Skin They’re in Through Art

    Funded Oct 9, 2023

    Thank you so very much for your generous donation. I truly appreciate the "More Than Peach" book, crayons, and sketchbooks. The multicultural markers and skin tone construction paper are a great additions to our art supplies.

    The students were excited about the large variety of skin tone crayons available... not just one brown, tan, or peach per box. They had fun choosing crayons by holding them up to their skin to compare and then testing the color on a separate sheet of paper. Some students overlapped several hues for their self portrait.”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Walk-Downs
