My Project

Our youngest learners have so much creativity and imagination inside them just waiting to get out. Often our students don't get the opportunity to use different art materials such as paint at home and let their artistic expression out. School is the perfect place for them to explore these materials, take chances, make mistakes, and get messy.

One of the most valuable things I have learned in my career is that art is about the process of being creative and not about the final product.

These materials will allow students to do just that, to be independent and use a variety of paint mediums to expression their creativity. The washable paint will be used in conjunction with the glue jar bottles to make the paint easy to use and not dry out.
