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

I teach in a “new to me” art room that needs to be revitalized for my amazing students. The classroom hosts five ceramic classes that are filled to maximum capacity with creative and motivated artists. My classes are one of the few spaces that students are able to connect from different grades, placements, backgrounds, and demographics.

My Project

What makes a great Ceramics class and program is safety yet creative freedom. Our supplies are currently down in the single digits and as such, it seriously limits a student's ingenuity and practice. Therefore, we need your help to get my students what they need to practice Ceramics in a creative and well-stocked environment!

The ceramics studio is a place where students are able to decompress, step away from screens, and become fully immersed in a completely tactile experience.

The Ceramics program serves as a unique outlet for kids' creativity and energy in a time and place where that often gets sidelined. It fosters patience, right brain development, and refines hand-eye coordination. Furthermore, it's a practice that allows students to try something they’ve always been meaning to try while connecting with a medium that has been around for thousands of years. Having these tools(shop vacuum, plaster, glaze, etc.) can only enhance the skills and opportunities that Ceramics can bring to a student's life.
