ALA grant: Picturing America

We received this grant, along with quite a list of other schools, for the upcoming year! It is a truly fun grant, whereby you are sent beautiful reproductions of art work to incorporate and display with your curriculum. The art teacher and I collaboratively applied for this, and are looking forward to using the materials.

For the schools with limited budgets in art, this is a fab opportunity!
