My Project

I always wanted to have a "Paint Night" type of class project with our 5th grade graduating class. Unfortunately, the materials are super expensive for events such as this one and can only come to life through the help of a few DonorsChoose donations. I created this project because I wanted my students to experience painting on a canvas just like professional artists do. So, for this project to come to life, we would need paintbrushes, paint, canvases and easels to have an unforgettable painting experience at school.
