Project Description

Currently, our art supplies are limited to traditional paints and brushes, which can be challenging for younger students or those with fine-motor skill difficulties. Acrylic paint markers provide an easy-to-control alternative while still offering the rich, opaque colors of acrylic paint. With them, students can add detailed line work, layer colors without smudging, and experiment with mixed-media projects.

Activities
● Introduce acrylic paint markers during art lessons across all grade levels.
● Provide demonstrations on techniques such as layering, blending, and outlining.
● Incorporate the markers into cross-curricular projects (science diagrams, historical timelines, literacy-based art).
● Display completed student work in school showcases, hallways, and community events. 

 

Expected Outcomes

● Increased engagement and enthusiasm for art projects.
● Enhanced ability to create precise, detailed artwork.
● Broader exploration of mixed media and unconventional surfaces.
● Greater inclusion of students who find traditional paintbrush use challenging. 

 

Purpose of Funding

8 packs of Acrylic Markers will be purchased through Amazon, including all additional costs.
