My Students

Help my little artists create masterpieces! We do amazing projects and need a drying rack for our paintings and projects. We are also in need of specialty art supplies such as modeling clay and collage materials.

I have a class of 24 first graders who are creative and excited about art.

Our school is a Visual and Performing Arts Magnet School that does amazing projects and musical productions. Art is a daily part of our day and we need materials to support our program.

My Project

We need a drying rack for all of the paintings and projects we create. They are usually strewn all over the classroom! Modeling clay is easy and doesn't require use of the kiln. Our watercolors have been depleted and new sets will allow everyone their own tray. These special materials will allow us to try new types of art.

The drying rack, collage materials, watercolor sets, and modeling clay will be used to create mini masterpieces in my first grade classroom.

Art is what makes life beautiful and school more fun! Please consider us.
