Art-room has amazing Natural Light, now in need of POSTERS/SOUND

Help me give my students the most dynamic and educational art room in the Bronx. The room itself has amazing natural light, but nothing to fill the walls and space with sound and beauty.

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

Being able to refer to and point at famous works during a lecture is and will be essential to maintaining the excitement of new learners. These posters will fulfill that need. I prefer my classrooms to be decorated with inspiring artworks so the students can learn from them, interact with them, and maybe even take inspiration from them.

Regarding the speakers, these are a steal and would fill the art room with crystal sound that will be a much more welcome noise to the sometimes crazy sounds coming from the city.
