My Project

We are looking for supplies to supplement our art class for choice days, clay, and sewing projects. Students love to get creative with building supplies like Duplos, learn to draw with the ever-popular Kawaii Drawing books, weave and braid with yarn, make ceramics with colorful glaze, and decorate with paint pens.

Please help us fund our project so students can enjoy creative play in the art room, as well as hone specific skills like ceramics, weaving, and drawing skills.

These supplies will contribute to meaningful experiences for my K-5 artists by giving them varied and engaging activities in which to participate.

In today's modern world of screens, making art is a respite for students, who are still captivated by hands-on experiences of creativity and dynamic play. Thank you for considering a contribution to the creative minds of our future!
