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
Every semester, our student artists pour their hearts into creative, thoughtful artwork. For over 20 years we have held art gallery shows at the end of each semester, celebrating their efforts for the whole community —an event where students, families, and staff can admire the powerful expression of young minds.
However, rising prices have made it harder to afford the frames we need to present student art work with the dignity and professionalism it deserves.
Quality frames are essential—not just for appearance, but for protecting and preserving student art. They elevate each piece and tell our young artists: your work matters.
Your donation will help us purchase sturdy, reusable frames that we can use year after year. This project is an investment in student confidence, school pride, and the visibility of the arts in our learning community.
