My Project

My young students get most excited by art when they have access to color. Throughout the school year they have created many incredible works of art. As we come to the end of the year I am noticing that our supplies are dwindling and our projects are becoming less vibrant.

We need your help to make art class colorful again!

The Crayola Classpacks are high quality and the pigments of their supplies are bright. I have made it work with the very limited supplies we have this year, but this project will make sure we can finish out the school year strong and also have some art supplies left over to start out next fall with a bang.
