Help Fund Our Donor's Choose Projects

Sample 3D Lego Portrait

Dryden's Art Program has TWO donor's choose projects posted. This site is a place where teachers fill a "shopping cart" full of what they need to do a project or receive professional development and ask the community to make (tax deductible) donations.

Donate to Our Grants

One of our grants is for legos and lego base plates. We LOVE creating with legos and our new project idea requires more materials. We want to build 3D lego portraits. This will give students a chance to concretely consider the placement of features while exploring height, width, and depth in their self-portraits.

Presenting at NAEA 2012

The second Donor's Choose Grant is for professional development. I had my presentation accepted at the National Art Education Association Conference this upcoming Spring to present about our transdigital art projects and share with a national audience the amazing things our Dryden artists are creating. Learn more about our award-winning approach to art making that merges both physical and digital art creation here.
