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 artists love to learn how to draw new things! In the art studio, as we work on different projects, my artists use how to draw books to learn new skills to enhance their artwork.

How to draw books give students the freedom and independence to learn to draw specific things they are interested in with step-by-step instruction.

These books are such a hit in the art studio, and having more options would benefit my students greatly! Our How to Draw Book library is sorted by theme and the "people" bin is nearly empty. This project will fill up the bin and provide my students with a wide variety of techniques and styles for drawing people. The books we are asking for illustrate how to draw different facial expressions, human proportions, and dynamic poses.

We currently have a limited number of books, and this project will help fill our shelves. Your donation would allow all students in the art studio the opportunity to learn new drawing skills!

Thank you for sharing and considering supporting our project!
