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

Help me develop an artistic space in my classroom, in which my students can safely dry and store their paintings with protection.

My students are very diligent when it comes to creating a lot of artwork during class time, however, we still need help arranging spaces to store and let our paintings dry.

Therefore, we need drying & storage racks to safely protect the works of art of my students.

With your help, we'll be able to create a drying station for their paintings and a storage section.

Any help provided will greatly impact the way my little artists learn in art class. By having additional racks & supplies our class will be able to have a better structure and organization, which will help develop classroom culture and have cleaner transitions when following a step-by-step process without worrying about their artwork getting messy.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
