My Project

As an educator, I firmly believe that a child's imagination knows no bounds. However, to fully express their creativity, students need the right tools. We are a Title 3 school, serving students who come from low-income families and we want to provide them with equal access and opportunities to learn. My goal for this project is to provide my students with a diverse range of high-quality art supplies so they can unlock their imagination and create masterpieces that reflect the beauty of their inner worlds. By promoting the use of these tools for artistic expression, we can empower our young learners to develop essential skills that will benefit them throughout their lives.

When students have access to a variety of art supplies to experiment with, we nurture their creativity, encouraging them to think outside the box and challenge conventional ideas.

Art allows children to explore emotions, ideas, and perspectives, helping them develop a deep sense of self-awareness and empathy for others. By offering a diverse range of basic art supplies, such as drawing materials, painting supplies, crafting essentials, and more, you will provide them with the canvas upon which their creativity can flourish. These materials will serve as gateways to new possibilities, allowing them to experiment, learn, and grow in ways that go beyond the classroom.
