My Project

We are a Performing Arts School that combines academic studies with artistic training. Students participate in dance, music, and theater performances that require visual promotions. Investing in a poster maker will elevate the schools communication efforts by creating visually appealing, informative, and impactful posters that resonate with our target audience.

The poster maker will be used to engage the school and community.

Students will design and print posters to promote school activities, fundraisers, public awareness campaigns, and community service projects. Students will develop design skills, communication skills, and problem-solving skills that will enhance their learning and allow them to express themselves creatively.
