Art Literacy
Volunteer-led art lessons that bring famous artists and hands-on projects into every classroom, several times a year.
The Story
Art isn't in the standard school budget — so the PTC and a crew of dedicated parent volunteers bring it to every classroom themselves.
Through Art Literacy, students meet a famous artist's work, learn the story and technique behind it, then make their own piece in that style. Monet's water lilies, Kandinsky's circles, Northwest Coast printmaking — over their years at Walker, students build a real foundation in looking at and making art.
What your support covers
- Paint, brushes, paper, clay, and printmaking supplies for every classroom
- Prints and materials that introduce each featured artist
- Training and materials for the parent volunteers who teach each lesson
No art experience needed to volunteer — training and lesson plans are provided. And every dollar goes straight into supplies that end up in kids' hands.
