SUPPLIES
We have created three supply lists to help you get the most value out of your conference experience. You can be very creative with a very basic supply list. Chances are if you have done any painting at home, you have some of the supplies on hand!
​

Looking to try and play with new supplies? Then you'll want to try the upgraded list.

After you register check your email for recommended links to easily buy on Amazon or your local hobby store.

The workbook will break down the supplies needed for each session.
As a result of ongoing budget cuts, many schools have had to reduce or in some cases eliminate art class entirely from their curriculum, even though we know how vital art is to our children's education and overall health and happiness! ​
We introduced Create In The Classroom in 2014 to help bridge the gap giving schools the opportunity to offer art enrichment to their students PLUS a portion of proceeds are donated to the school to buy art supplies and promote art in their school!

If you love art and kids - YOU can be the art ambassador for your community. And we can show you how. Block off your calendar, gather your supplies, and get ready to party!
