My Project

Unfortunately, because of budget constraints, our middle school students do not have art classes. They tell me all the time how much they wish they had art. I see their creativity in the drawings they do and the projects they show me they do at home.

I want to create an after-school art club where students will have access to materials to be creative and work on art projects.

I'm looking for supplies to help support that vision. Jewelry making, weaving, art string, and painting are just some of the projects I have in mind for them to work on. I've also included snacks so I can provide something for them to eat while they are here.
