For my Gold Award, I will be installing a Dragon Sculpture at Hampden Elementary and beautifying the area in which it is installed. Then every year, Hampden's Art teacher, Mrs. Kovach, will expand the sculpture with her 5th grade students by decorating a rock each to leave there as a part of themselves. This blog will document my process in order to help inspire others to add art to their own communities as well to help attack the lack of funding for the Arts.

Asking for Donations
I project that this sculpture will only require about $30 worth of materials: two rebars, a 10ft x 2ft roll of chicken wire, two 80lb bags of cement, and water sealant. I am asking Lowe's and Home Depot for donations using the letter below. I looked online for a guideline on how to write letters like this but I did not find much. After writing these, I will put them into an envelope and deliver them to the managers of each store which is also who the letters are addressed to. Then, I will check back with each store after a couple of weeks to see about the donation. I am in no rush to get the supplies since I will not be able to make concrete until it starts to warm up again.
