In just a matter of days school will begin anew. That means new art time adventures including an art fundraiser featuring your child's artwork, new projects, and more!
As we get closer to the start of the new year, please remember that your child will greatly benefit from an art shirt. Any old oversized shirt with their name written on it will do. Art is a collaborative effort and we can always use your help in allowing every child success. If you are looking for ways to help we can always use just about anything (and thank you in advance). The list below can be helpful for some idea:
Markers
Erasers
Tissues
Masking Tape
Sharpies (black [all sizes] & color [just fine tip])
Glue (liquid, not sticks)
Sidewalk chalk
We can also use recycled items such as:
Egg cartons
Stackable plastic containers (yogurt, butter, etc)
Old Towels/Shirts
Newspaper
Magazines
Yarn
Wire hangers
Panty-hoses/stockings (preferable the smooth kind, no bumps or textures)
Small objects great for found art projects (i.e. beads, gears, string, sticks, wood, fabric, etc)
Materials from nature (i.e. rocks, sticks, leaves, bark, seed pods, etc.)
Lastly, as mentioned before art is a collaborative effort and it is one in which no one is excluded. Art allows us to learn acceptance and understanding from each other in an environment that is open, encouraging, and safe. I love using my art room to expand our perception and open our hearts. Delta Center is a great school with wonderful diversity. If you or your family have ideas or experiences that can help enrich our art making process, please feel free to drop me a line. I would love to incorporate it or even have a featured guest visit!
See everyone soon!
