Sharing Art Supplies at School

Do you want to create a dedicated art library for your school? All the materials you need to do it are below.
 
Would you like us to order the supplies and set up your art library for your school?
Connect with us to discuss a PTA–Sponsored Partnership (you pay for the schools’ art cabinet materials – and get our bulk discounts – and we invite your community to our workshops at little to no cost).  Learn more by emailing our Program Director at schoolprograms@artstartnw.org
