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

The 2023-2024 school year will be the first time my students have had art in four years! I'm excited to see the visual artists they'll become. When I came to this school from another school in the Bronx, I was not allowed to bring any supplies with me.

Quality Crayola brushes allow students to control the paint and create their visions.

By using Crayola size 8 brushes artists can better control the amount of paint on their paper, meanwhile, the Chenille Kraft brand's large chunky square brushes help younger artists to spread the paint around. This discovery gives each young artist the power to experiment with their creativity in ways that only Art can.
