Earth Day Collaborative Project

After collecting hundreds of water bottles (THANKS MRS. VANDEVOORDE!!!), we have started our Dale Chihuly inspired sculpture this week.  Our goal is to have our first sculpture finished in time for the Art Show on Wednesday evening from 6-7:30pm.  Monitoring non-washable acrylic paint with the kids kept my hands busy during class time hence the pictures are without children.

 Red at the beginning

Almost finished!

We will also have a donation box at the art show for the Umbrellas for Peace Project.  An example of the project can be seen at Umbrellas for Peace.  So far we have received 2.6% of the $2, 590 we need to make this project come to life.  I will have a few umbrellas out for students to paint for some of our staff members.  If you have fun paint colors to donate, please send those in ASAP.  Thank you for your support on this "once in a lifetime" project!  I can't wait to see it come to life!
