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 Music Department Community Garden has a list of resources that would help encourage the students to be involved by putting an area together creatively with plants and painting projects like a mural right in front of the garden and decorating colorful vases. We want the garden to be an area where students gather during their leadership meetings, so an outdoor bench is included to help serve that purpose. We have also listed live plants and pots in an effort to decorate the garden with color and fragrance, and this would also give students from the gardening club a chance to express their art through nature. When students use these resources, it would help expand their knowledge of Visual Arts, create student autonomy, and allow them to create and appreciate their own community outside of the home. Having a space would encourage responsibility because they would need to maintain the garden, and rely on teamwork to help this area thrive.
