My Project

My high school has been using the same, old dirty desks from over 10 years ago! My current desks are covered in old paint that chips off and destroys my students masterpieces. My hope is to provide a clean and new space for students to enjoy art class without the mess of old, dirty, broken tables and supplies. These new folding tables will be the perfect clean slate.

LED lights are proven to help with stress and anxiety and will be the perfect fun, unexpected addition that I KNOW my students will LOVE!

My daily goal is to provide a comforting environment, so these new tables and lights will be the perfect addition to our space.
