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

Our fine arts budget is nonexistent. We need donors to support our students’ creative minds. The canvas boards and watercolor paper will give students something that they can take home to be proud of. The acrylic paint brushes will be used for the canvas boards. The watercolor brushes will be used on the watercolor paper. These fine arts materials will help students understand that some particular tools and supplies need to be used to create paintings of fine quality. Better materials will provide a sense of pride in our students.
