2005 Charity Organization

Client: Sierra Vista Elementary School, South Phoenix, AZ
Project: Geometry In Art Government Grant Project

Realm Creative assisted in securing a government grant for a project designed to teach students about geometry found in art. We formulated and submitted a letter explaining why we felt the school deserved the grant. Our submission, along with those of other donors helped the school successfully obtain the grant.

The study primarily focused on Native American, African, and Mexican art works. Students individually designed a variety of art pieces that reflected what they learned over the course of the semester. As a collective project, classes measured the exterior walls of the school library for a mural. They then designed individual ceramic tiles and, once painted and fired, created an exterior public art mural of the works.

Upon completion Realm acted as the official judge of individual student art works and selected the top three from each grade. Winners received awards and prizes including a grand prize of round-trip airline tickets donated by Southwest Airlines.

Students were asked to photograph progress and helped formulate a script for Realm Creative. As a final component of the project, our firm designed a Flash movie presentation that was played at a school assembly showing the progress and results of the project. The movie was submitted to the Arizona Department of Education.
