My Project

This project aims to enhance art education and provide students with the necessary materials and tools to explore their creativity and develop their artistic skills. By acquiring these supplies, we aim to create a more engaging and hands-on learning experience for our students this upcoming school year in the new coursework I have created.

Students will use the Artograph EZ Tracer Projectors to create large-scale paintings, and the Blick Golden-Cut Linoleum - Roll to create works in our new urban art course this fall.

We have no presses or barrens, so these two Speedball Presses will assist in the coming school year.

Our art classroom lacks essential supplies for various art projects and activities.

The limited resources have restricted our students' ability to explore different art techniques and mediums fully. With your support, we can overcome this challenge and enrich our students' art education.
