My Project

All of our students want to learn to draw and create. Art is a conduit to problem solving and developing thinking skills. The ability to have construction paper, crayons, colored pencils, glue and other art materials in a classroom is essential to learning.

Funding an Art Classroom taps into children's creativity and helps their overall academic success.

Our materials will be used in project based learning which will incorporate Social Studies and Science Themes.

Students will then be able to simply focus on the joy of learning and creating projects that will eventually bridge the world of academics and art.
