Art Lit Discovers Frida Kahlo, Volunteers Needed
The time has finally arrived and we are in need of Art Literacy volunteers!
We have an AMAZING Art Literacy lesson planned for the students of Tumwater to finish off this school year. They are going to get to put their unique spin on a self-portrait, just like our artist Frida Kahlo did. But only classes that have someone to run the lesson will get to participate...and we want that to be EVERYONE!
Training Session - Tuesday May 3rd from 6-7:30
Please join us TUESDAY, May 3rd from 6-7:30 for a training you are going to LOVE! Create a frameable piece of art, for FREE! We just ask that you volunteer to teach (at least)one 1 lesson of Art Lit at Tumwater the week of May 9th-13th and/or May 16-19th. The artist is edgy and the art is STUNNING! Get out of your head and into your heart and help us make this happen for all the kids at Tumwater Middle School!

Art Literacy Volunteer Shifts
The weeks of May 9th and May 15th will have special bell schedules to accommodate state testing. Since the class periods are longer, they are the ideal time to teach art literacy lessons, which will be happening during their science classes!
Please ask your child who their science teacher is and what period they have them! (or, surprise them the day of - you can find their class schedule in ParentVue.) A few of the class periods span across two days, and some are divided across the lunch period. Those are noted in each volunteer opportunity.
Feel free to sign up for as many shifts as you can! We need at least one1 person for each class to teach the lesson. If a class is without a volunteer, the lesson will not happen.
