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

As an art teacher working with students from kindergarten through 8th grade, I have the joy and privilege of nurturing creativity and self-expression in young minds. Art is a powerful tool that allows students to explore their imagination, develop problem-solving skills, and build confidence. To continue providing enriching, hands-on experiences, my classroom is in need of essential art supplies that will help my students bring their ideas to life.

With materials like Sharpies Magnum Tank Permanent Marker, Ultra fine pont Sharpies, Fine tip Sharpies, 2 sets of acrylic paint markers pens, 1 spirograph deluxe set, 1 set of pompom multi color balls, 1 set of glitter glue pens, 5 set of mini canvas, wood shapes, wood sticks, sketch paper and crayons, my students will have the opportunity to experiment with different textures, colors, and techniques.

These supplies will support a variety of creative projects, from painting and drawing to mixed-media and three-dimensional art. By working with these materials, students will learn patience, attention to detail, and the joy of creating something uniquely their own.

Many of my students thrive in the art room, where they can express their thoughts and emotions in ways that words sometimes can’t capture. Having a well-stocked classroom means I can offer them more opportunities to explore their creativity and discover their artistic voices. Every crayon, paint marker, and piece of canvas contributes to a learning environment where students feel inspired and empowered.

Your support will make a world of difference. By helping provide these materials, you are not only supplying tools — you are fueling creativity, encouraging self-expression, and helping shape the artists and innovators of tomorrow. Thank you for believing in the importance of art education and for supporting my students’ creative journeys.
