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

Students are ready to take risks when they make art. I always tell them, go big or go home!

My students are itching to go to impressive scale with a Cricut Venture large format cutting machine which will allow them to make humongous artwork that will impress any who see it!

With the Cricut Venture my students could design artwork on digital platforms and use the machine to make precision cuts on different materials to make the digital images come to life! Paired with our large scale printer we already have in class my students would be able to easily cut their designs and display them.

This project would not be possible without your support. This machine would be used to enhance their learning by giving them an opportunity to make art in proportions that they could only dream of!
