D102 PTO Kids Art Project Fundraiser

Hello D102 Families!

Welcome to this year's art project fundraiser. We do this through ‘Art to Remember’, a company that prints artwork onto keepsakes. This year the project is being done virtually since school is remote at this point. We really want to help families make memories of this significant year. This year we’re also opening this up to include grades 6-8. Students create new artwork (working with family members if they’d like) or use artwork they’ve already made.  We've included 6 easy steps below to guide you through the process!

Step 1 - Start Here!
