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

This year was a prolific year in the art classroom. Students dabbled in many mediums and styles of art including scratchboard, ink drawing, pencil and colored pencil artwork, and even gold leaf. Because of this we are beginning to run low on paper.

This project gives students access to high-quality drawing paper and materials at the very beginning of the next school year so we are not waiting on orders to come through weeks into the new semester.

Thank you in advance for your consideration. Every little bit counts in getting students access to high-quality art materials so they can effectively express themselves and their creativity.
