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

My students love to learn and create. Art is the perfect way for them to use their imagination and show what they learned in a creative way. I would like to provide my students with different materials to create art.

Every child is an artist!

I would like to have my students study different artists and styles of art so they can learn to express themselves in different ways. The Sharpies and Mr. Sketch markers will allow them to draw or trace their creations. The paper will provide them with blank canvases to create their works of art. Please consider donating to our project.
