My Project

This week, schools across California are celebrating Kindness Week as designated by the California Department of Education. We want to create art to help the students demonstrate through art, the 'art of kindness.' We want to focus on the power of compassion—both in small, everyday moments and in intentional acts. Together, we can create an environment of support and positivity that uplifts our entire community.

Students at both an elementary and high school site will work together in creating art that expresses being kind, cooperative and collaborative in the school environment.
