“Spinning Possibilities: Pottery Wheels for Every Young Artist”

Help me give my students a pottery wheel. We’re building a ceramics program where all students, including those with physical disabilities, can use pottery wheels to explore, create, and grow their skills. Your support will make this possible.

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

What I love most about my students is their eagerness to learn, their creativity, and the joy they find in expressing themselves through art. Many of them face daily challenges, whether economic, social, or physical, yet they show up with curiosity and a desire to create.

Adding pottery wheels to our classroom will allow every student to experience the full process of ceramics, helping them build fine motor skills, patience, and confidence.

For students with physical disabilities, the wheels will provide a more accessible and empowering alternative to hand-building techniques. This resource will open doors for every student.Pottery wheels will give every student, regardless of skill level or physical ability, the chance to build confidence, explore their creativity, and grow their ceramic skills.
