Setting up for art
 

We are attempting to create an art room at our school (no art teacher, but a space where teachers could take their students for art lessons).

Other than the obvious - paint, brushes, paper, etc. What do we need? I'm hoping to write a DonorsChoose project in the fall to help get stuff, any help with what to get would be appreciated.

thanks :)

A drying rack!

I'd also get some posters of famous art to decorate the room, if you get enough money.

Thanks
 

Will add those to the list

supplies
 

What a great idea!

Have teachers and families donate old magazines and newspapers to use for collaging.
Smocks (you can use large old t-shirts) are useful.

Art Room Supplies
 

Yarn, cardboard or paper plated for weaving, tissue paper, beads, air dry clay, plastic forks, spoons, knives for texture in tempera paint, paper bags and straws.

two things
 

Yarn and a drying racks. Yarn is so freaking expensive.
