GA20 List of Homework Supplies

 





Art Materials List for Students and Parents


Visual arts supplies and graphic arts supplies are very expensive.  All students must use the classroom materials with the greatest care and demonstrate great responsibility.  All students who wish to successfully complete their Visual Arts 20 course must buy some personal art supplies which will help them with homework  and independent assignments. Students are not  required to bring these supplies with them to class, but need these supplies to work effectively outside of class time. Please encourage one another to be successful and responsible.
