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

As I get close to completing my first semester as a high school arts educator at Harvest, I have a greater sense of my student community and what I can offer. Funding this project would help me move towards building a more joyful, engaging, and deep learning experience through the arts for my students.

I seek to build a culturally sustaining arts space where students are able to bring their full selves to their work and feel celebrated.

Through our projects, we explore big essential questions, learn about contemporary art, explore cultural history, and build understanding of how artists can be activists and changemakers.

By having access to a wide array of exciting and diverse materials, I can build in student choice and autonomy into every one of my projects. I want the materials we use to feel exciting and challenging, and I hope to give students opportunities to use things they have little access to outside of school.

Next semester, we will explore new techniques in mural painting, textile arts, sculptural works, printmaking and more, and I hope you can help us accomplish these dreams!
