ALA BLOG
I am often asked about the art materials we use and recommendations, so here are the primary resources and supplies we use in class. In some cases, there may be a small commission from any purchases from an affiliate link, which will go to support this Children's art education program.
ART MATERIALS

In addition to these main class materials, I also recommend
Blick's and Utrecht art supplies. I love to wander through the large Blick store in downtown Portland and in addition to a large selection of products for professional artists, they have children's art and crafts supplies. Blicks also carries Utrecht paints. I often buy in bulk during cyber deals. They have good discounts and sales and the links will take you to smaller quantities with more choices. Any purchases from these affiliates helps to support this children's enrichment program.

THE ART PROJECTS
Randall's Children's Hospital Mural
" Raining Hearts in the Garden"
ALA Summer Mural projects , "Natural Habitats", and "Coral Reefs", will be on display in the halls of Abernethy , along with photos . One of our murals has already been donated to Randall's Children's Hospital.
"Coral Reefs" is also going to be featured in the newsletter of the Coral Restoration Foundation, and on the website of Reef Check Foundation. They were so impressed by the great effort by the children and their art to promote environmental awareness.
