Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

I teach visual art grades preK-8 4 days a week and grades 7-12 one day a week at our city's alternative middle and high school for students who have been adjudicated or who have aged out of their grade level. They are high poverty schools with 100% eligibility for free school lunch funding. It has been labeled a school in need of improvement.

No examples of art work! We do not have any way to show examples of historic or contemporary art work or movies about artists. We don't even have a color printer to make color copies of work! My students love the art books I bring in from the library. I would love to be able to share large scale version of the work and show slide shows of their work that I photograph year round but have no one to show it!

All we need is one LCD projector and I can open up the world to my students! They will be able to see the historic art work of the artists that have come before them. They will be able to experience the lives and cultures of the artists and periods of art history. It is my hope that they will be able to make quick time movies to express themselves and document their experiences.

You will expose my students to the endless possibilities that art holds. By seeing what others have created it will empower them to dream beyond their horizons and create art they never thought possible. They will be inspired, provoked,filled with joy, angered, saddened and educated through being able to use the projector to view other artists work and their own
