What is Art Club ? 

RMMS Art Club is a small group of dedicated 6th-8th grade Student Artists, who meet once a week on Friday afternoons from 3:30-4:30.  

During this time we will be creating different artworks of varying styles and media, developing our artistic craft, and building artistic confidence alongside a small group of peers.

All students went through an application process, and a few students were invited to join the group.  

Due to Art Club functioning as an enrichment activity, we do not currently have our own budget. We are accepting donations of supplies, snacks, and T-Shirts for the student artists. We also greatly appreciate any donations of supplies, or snacks (for 20 students).  

If you have any questions about the Art Club or donation process, please feel free to contact Ms. Gaechter at sgaechter@laalliance.org.
