Student art auction raised $1,240!
Our 6th graders auctioned their self-portraits at Family Night, and every cent went to this campaign. Thank you, bidders!
The story
About this campaign
Our art room serves 640 students a week on a supply budget of $1,800 a year. That's less than $3 per child. Ms. Okafor buys paint out of her own pocket, and students share brushes worn down to the handle.
We want our art studio to feel like a real studio.
- A pottery kiln, so students can finally fire the clay pieces they make
- 30 adjustable easels and drying racks
- A full year of quality paints, paper, clay and brushes
- A display wall in the main hallway for rotating student exhibitions
Art is where some of our quietest kids find their voice. Help us give them the tools.
