> HELP ART IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS!

Astoundingly, given all the money spent on public education, precious little is spent on art and, among the 7 fine arts, the LEAST amount is devoted to visual arts.

You can do something about that.

A website exists where teachers post a "Wish List" (e.g. a digital camera, paint brushes, art history books etc.) for supplies and materials to help them teach art. MOST, by FAR, of the listings are for performing arts classes of one kind and another. However, there are some visual art needs out there which we can, perhaps, help with.

In fact, there are 1309 total pages of Wish List!

Select "Art"

Help, if you can.
