Wish List

    Hi everyone.
    I'm a middle school art teacher here in SC. I'd really appreciate your help
    with this question.
    Our school is in the middle of renovation, and next year, after 13 years in
    a tiny, ill-equipped room, I'm getting a brand-new Art room. Yeeeeehaw!
    It has a kiln room, a couple of storage rooms, and more classroom space than
    I ever dreamed I'd have. Here's my question:
    What would you ask for if you had to completely equip an Art Room? Our
    Furniture and Equipment Committee is meeting again next week, and I'm to
    bring a wish list. Chances look good that I'll get most of what I ask for,
    within reason (I guess the foundry is out); my room is the third priority
    area, after the library and computer labs. I'm supposed to use what
    equipment I have that's still in good shape, but that would be my one
    pottery wheel, I imagine. I've never had a working kiln (welcome to my
    district), so I'm not even positive what I need to start a good ceramics
    program.
    I guess my question is, what would you consider to be the basic and best
    equipment needed to outfit a new Art Room? This is a once in a lifetime
    opportunity, and I don't want to leave *anything* out. I also have to
    include tables, chairs, specialized storage, etc. Please feel free to
    respond to me personally, and thanks in advance.
