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

Learning how to create art enriches learning experiences as well as prepares students for life after elementary school. We will create canvases and use numerous other mediums to create unique works of art that students will be able to share with their families and keep for years to come.

Art in the classroom encourages students to explore their creativity and engage in self expression through different mediums of art.

By offering art education in the school system, children will get a chances to stimulate their imagination and create a variety of works of art.
