Statewide Reach for Local Impact

FIND IT FUND IT FLORIDA

To create an authentic and professional environment for students to learn in is one of the biggest goals a teacher can have. From the decor, to the content, we want to create an environment students will both thrive and build real world experience in. By creating an authentic studio space, my students will see art beyond a hobby. Rather, they will experience the authenticity of a studio, becoming masters of their art instead.
By purchasing easels, drawing boards and drawing pads for my students, they will work in an authentic art studio. This will allow them to hone in on their skills and bloom as budding artists, moving beyond casual artists to serious craftsmen.

Goal

To create an authentic and professional environment for students to learn in is one of the biggest goals a teacher can have. From the decor, to the content, we want to create an environment students will both thrive and build real world experience in. By creating an authentic studio space, my students will see art beyond a hobby. Rather, they will experience the authenticity of a studio, becoming masters of their art instead.

Category

School supplies - Markers, paints, paper, crayons, clay, pencils, sharpies, modeling dough, etc. 

 

What will be done with my students

I am requesting 12 easels, 12 large drawing boards, and 12 large drawing pads. This is to allow students to develop the skills of working large scale, as well as having the opportunity to work as a real artist does. Without being limited to small papers and desks, students can move freely and create without bounds.  

 

Benefits to my students

The overall goal of this project is to create an advanced art program. By having proper and professional tools, students will be able to improve their skills as well as experience working in a studio, as professional artists do. This will be measured by the products created by the students.  

 

Budget Narrative

These items will be used to create an authentic studio experience for students, as well as allowing them to practice on a large scale. Once learning how to control their fine motor skills, such as line quality, they will be able to create masterpieces!
