Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

To be inspired by Minnesota illustrator Gary Harbo to create drawings using the samples & lessons he provides -- and also to follow through on the life lessons he slips into his presentations.

Measurable Outcome(s)

The students all loved learning to draw step-by-step. They may use what they learned the rest of their lives or even become a famous artist themselves.

Source of Additional Funds

The school provided the art room, art paper, pencils and erasers. The library did the contracts, emailing Gary Harbo, and meeting him at school and getting him started.
