Help me give my students a drying rack to store their artwork! Your donation will help us care for our projects and maximize classroom space. This is a one-time investment that will be used for years to come.
My art classroom serves over 600 amazing young artists from Pre-K to 5th grade, and we are in need of a reliable and spacious drying rack to help us keep up with our creativity!
Every day, we’re creating beautiful projects, from watercolor paintings to collages, and our students’ work deserves the best care and space to dry properly.
Currently, we’re limited by space and have to get creative with drying solutions, often stacking artwork in ways that risk damage. With a new, sturdy drying rack, we will be able to organize and display their artwork safely while it dries, ensuring it remains intact for students to take home or display in the classroom.
The drying rack will allow us to:
Keep artwork safe and organized – With so many students, having a dedicated, vertical space to store drying art is crucial.
Promote independence – Younger students will be able to manage their own artwork as they can place it on the rack themselves.
Maximize classroom space – We can free up tables and surfaces for other projects, keeping the room neat and organized.
Ensure all artwork is cared for – We’ll be able to give each student’s artwork the individual space it needs to dry without the risk of smudges or damage.
Your donation will directly impact over 600 students' artistic experience, helping them take pride in their work and feel excited about the creative process. Thank you for supporting our young artists and helping them express themselves in a classroom filled with inspiration and creativity!
This drying rack will be a one-time investment, and its durability will ensure years of service to our school community.
Thank you so much for considering supporting our classroom!
