My Students

My artists are talented and creative. Most importantly, they are emotionally invested in their art. They are thrilled to work on this year's art series, Art From Around the World! If you could only see their smiles and feet as they glide down the hall and hurry to their desks! "I love art!", "Your class is my favorite!", "I want to be like you when I grow up...", and, "I am artistic!", are words from my students that I love to hear. Point blank, they feel connected to the arts. My students know that art is not just a product you make. They use it as an therapeutic outlet and a way to expand their mind and heart. My students don't have a lot personally and sometimes lack self-confidence, but when they finish a masterpiece it makes a huge difference in the way they perceive themselves!

My Project

I want to showcase my student's art in a way that will never be forgotten. It's a special night all for them. Help me put on a spectacular art night for friends and family to experience and be moved by.

I love learning.

So do my students! That is why I chose the theme, "Art from Around the World", for my students this year! Each grade chose a continent that their collection of art would be inspired by. Kindergarten to 5th grade enjoy learning about the world through art! I planned culture-rich projects that challenge thinking and feed creativity! Roaring African lions, expressive Japanese cherry blossoms, Australian Great Barrier Reef's swimming with life, embellished Peruvian llama's ready for festival, detailed Eiffel Tower's, and Lady Liberty portraits with a spin on them! These are some of the big masterpieces my little artists are eager to share on art night! So, what can you do to make this night special and aid students in making even more connections between art and the world?

I need help with supplies for each of the 6th booths that will be represented at art night--

Kindergarten: Africa

1st grade: Asia

2nd grade: Australia

3rd grade: South America

4th grade: Europe

5th grade: North America

The supplies needed are craft and snack items that connect to each continent-- a chance to try new foods and explore! For example, at the Africa booth students and can create an African thumb piano to take home! At the Asia booth guests can sample candies and snacks unique to Asian countries as well as make another craft! Students also need supplies to make event signs and posters with facts/visual aids about the countries they were inspired by. These will be proudly displayed alongside of their art!
