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

We will hopefully be funding our Glowforge laser cutter really soon and will be in need of additional art supplies so that students can add the final finishing details to their wooden, acrylic, and leather projects.

The basic art supplies such as paint markers, paint, and brushes will allow students to paint and decorate their personalized wooden laser cut projects.

The safety glasses will be used when using the laser cutter. The masking tape will be used to cover and protect the wood when it is placed in the laser cutter. The erasable pens are to replace pens that have run out of ink. We are so excited and can't wait for the laser cutter to be funded and come in. Students' creativity will be on full display across our campus. Thank you for taking a peek at our art project. I appreciate any support. Thank you!
