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

My TK-8th grade students are becoming amazing artists this year! Now, I am beginning our unit on 3-D art, including air dry clay and paper mache building, as well as other sculpture creations. I need space for the projects to dry between building and painting, and I am completely at a loss as to how I can complete multiple classes at once all while giving the projects time to dry in the art studio.

Please help me find space that is easy to move and load art projects while they are in process.

These shelves will help me tremendously as it allows me to save student work efficiently while we are engaging in 3D arts.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
