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 fund a project to create polymer clay figurine for our Visual Arts majors!

We are an audition based arts middle school with many talented students who are making art to build their portfolios for high schools.

In this project, we hope to create small polymer clay figurines using sculpey, and painting, coloring, and decorating them with 3-D embellishments. We are hoping to work on this project during the spring.

Our school vendors do not sell Posca markers, and they are a beloved supply used by my students that I fund from my own pocket, and this will give our students a set of markers to use in other projects, adding in beautiful and clean finishing touches to paintings. I look forward to seeing what kind of creations our students make with these supplies and would love to share our progress through class Dojo.
