  • Tie Dye Fun in Art Class!

    Funded Oct 11, 2021

    I hope this message finds you well. I wanted to take a moment to express my sincere gratitude for your incredibly generous donation to our elementary art program. Your support in providing tie-dye materials and shirts has made a profound impact on our students' creative journey, and we are truly grateful for your kindness and generosity.

    From the moment the tie-dye materials and shirts arrived, they ignited a wave of excitement and anticipation among our students. The vibrant colors and endless possibilities sparked their imaginations, and they eagerly dove into the creative process with enthusiasm and joy. Watching them experiment with different techniques and express themselves through their unique designs was truly inspiring, and it reminded us of the transformative power of art.

    Your donation has not only provided our students with an opportunity to explore their creativity but has also empowered them to express themselves freely and confidently. In a world where self-expression is often stifled, your generosity has given our students a platform to share their voices and celebrate their individuality. The pride and sense of accomplishment they felt as they proudly displayed their tie-dye creations were priceless moments that will stay with them for a lifetime.

    Beyond the artistic aspect, your donation has also fostered a sense of community and collaboration within our school. The tie-dye project brought students, teachers, and families together, uniting us in a shared passion for creativity and learning. It provided a valuable opportunity for students to work together, support one another, and celebrate each other's unique talents and perspectives.

    As we reflect on the success of the tie-dye project and the positive impact it has had on our students and school community, we are filled with gratitude for your generosity. Your support has not only enhanced our art program but has also enriched the lives of our students in ways that words cannot adequately express. Your kindness and generosity have made a difference, and we are profoundly grateful for your ongoing support.

    Thank you once again for your incredible generosity and for believing in the power of art to inspire, empower, and unite. Your donation has touched the hearts of our students and brought smiles to their faces, and for that, we are truly grateful.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Schroeder

  • Chalk Pastels & Colorful Possibilities for Amazing K-5 Student Artists!

    Funded Oct 30, 2021

    I hope this message finds you well. I wanted to take a moment to express my sincere gratitude for your generous donation of chalk pastels to our art room. Your support has truly made a significant impact on our students' artistic experiences.

    The chalk pastels have been a wonderful addition to our art studio, sparking creativity and excitement among our students. Some of our favorite projects from the year have been created using these pastels, including our study of Mary Blair and the charming castles inspired by "It's a Small World." The students have thoroughly enjoyed experimenting with the blendability of the chalk and exploring this new medium.

    Your contribution has added valuable variety to our art studio and has enabled our students to broaden their artistic horizons. I am delighted to report that the pastels have been well taken care of and will continue to be cherished parts of our studio for many years to come.

    Once again, thank you for your generosity and support. Your investment in the creativity of our children is truly invaluable.”

  • Mini Picassos in Need of New Brushes and Art Supplies!

    Funded Oct 12, 2021

    Thank you so much for supplying my art room with high quality paintbrushes. The paintbrushes were well loved and used this year. Granby students love creating art and their favorite medium is paint! The paintbrushes were used by every student at Granby k-5. Our project ranged from landscapes and self portraits to group collaborations. These brushes will be around for years to come and are appreciated greatly.

    Thank you for supporting public schools and art education. The art room at Granby is a better place because of you!”

  • Print Making in Art Class!

    Funded Sep 22, 2021

    I'm so grateful that my print making project was fully funded thanks to your generosity! Thank you so much for supporting the arts at Granby Elementary. I have begun to utilize the printing plates with my aspiring young artists. These printing plates have allowed my students to experience the joy of experimenting in art without fear of failure because they have multiple attempts and hope in the next print at the tip of their fingertips. Because the Gelli plates are resuable my students are learning it is okay to make mistakes and that art does not always come out perfect the first time. By persevering and trying again they have discovered that failure brings knowledge in which can be applied on the next attempt at printing. This has made the sounds of gasps and squeals as the papers are pulled from the printing plates to reveal the intricate designs reproduced immeasurable.”

  • Help Us With a Color Printer for Art Projects!

    Funded Aug 4, 2021

    The color printer has been a wonderful addition to our art studio! It is exciting to be able to brighten up the classroom. I have started using the color printer for examples, artists biographies and task cards for the students to use. When there is an assignment printed with color, it makes learning a lot more fun and engaging. Having a color printer in the classroom enhances learning and gives students ample opportunity to get creative as well. Thank you for the gift and the blessing of having a color printer in the class, it has made learning a lot more exciting.”

    Ms. Schroeder

The Art Studio needs a color printer! The color printer will be used for many purposes but mostly for references for painting. Artists need quality references for their workspace. By supporting us with this printer you will be enhancing the lives of many hard-working artists! A color printer will enhance my student-artist's experiences in their creative journey. Visual artists need a plethora of visual resources and this color printer will enable my artists to research, print, and collect imagery that will benefit their projects. Students will continue to use their school issued Chromebooks this fall and a new updated printer is necessary in order for all the technology to work together.
