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 Project

Our third-grade classroom is on the brink of a colorful artistic adventure, and we're excited to invite you to join us on this creative journey! With your generous support, we aim to introduce our students to the captivating world of canvas painting using acrylics, encouraging their self-expression and imagination.

Your contributions will provide essential materials for our artistic exploration: canvas boards, assorted paint brushes, and a vibrant acrylic paint set.

These resources will serve as the foundation for our students to unleash their creativity, experiment with various techniques, and bring their artistic visions to life.

Our goal is to provide an art project to coincide with Mother's Day for students to celebrate an important "mother figure" in their lives. In addition, we'll create a community showcase where our budding artists proudly display their vibrant masterpieces. Your support will not only provide materials but also empower these young minds, fostering a lifelong appreciation for the arts and nurturing their confidence and creativity. Join us in igniting a passion for art and empowering these third graders to explore their artistic potential. Thank you for considering our project and for championing the arts in education.
