Soothing Our Minds With Art

Help me give my students sketchbooks, an Apple Pencil, and other art materials to create projects that encourage self-awareness and the importance of art in their mental wellness. These items will allow them to create mixed-media works and explore different mediums.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

The requested materials of sketchbooks, brushes, palettes, and a digital Apple Pencil will allow for our art students to expand their methods of creating. It will allow them to explore the soothing and therapeutic side of creating art, focusing on their mental health and overall wellness.

It's no secret, art is magical!

It transforms and shapes young lives in different ways, and serves as an outlet for creativity and sometimes as therapy. Please help us acquire these art supplies so we can continue to shape healthy minds and hearts. Thank you.
