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.

My Students

TJHS is filled with many artistically talented students. The population is composed primarily of economically disadvantaged students. Almost all students are Hispanic and many of them are new to the English Language. Art helps them communicate in their confusing teenage worlds when language might be a barrier. They are hungry to work with their hands and hearts as well as see and experience how their art extends beyond the classroom walls. Please consider helping the many wonderfully talented and young artists of TJHS on their journey to find their voices through creativity and art.

My Project

The Memory Project has captivated many hearts across the nation and the world by allowing High School Artists to render beautiful portraits of often forgotten about orphans from struggling countries. I worked with artists on three prior occasions to complete these portraits and I witnessed students grow very fond of how their art could impact the life of another human being. TJ Students were featured last year in DISD's "The Hub" after completing portraits of children from Bolivia. This year at TJHS, I will again be working hands on with a small group of about 30 sponsored students after school. They will be using the hopefully funded supplies, charcoal, Prismacolor pencils, and illustration markers to learn how to render portraits from the sent photographs of the orphans. Once the portraits are completed, they will be hand delivered to a place like Honduras or Uganda. A photo will be taken of the orphan holding their artistic portrait, and the orphans will write back to my students. This will be a wonderful opportunity for my students to take part in something bigger than themselves and see how their art can impact the world.
