My Project

No more copy paper for drawing and construction paper for painting! A lot of people are unaware about how paper quality can affect artwork. I want our students to learn about and experience various materials. Being at such a large school makes it difficult to afford nicer quality materials. Being in a large, public school shouldn’t affect the amount of or quality of the materials our students have. Young artists deserve quality paper to create with. Please help us purchase drawing and mixed media specific paper. Our students, like all children deserve better.
