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

We have some of the most creative, artistic and inspiring students around. Our students live on the Lower East Side but have roots from around the world—China, Bangladesh, Puerto Rico, Venezuela, Turkey, Angola—just to name a few. We are an exciting bunch! Many of our students are working on learning a second language. Our school has a dual language program for Mandarin and Spanish. The diversity in our students makes for an exciting learning environment for all—especially in the art room.

Our artists are in need of a new system to organize their 3D art.

The wire racks and pegboards in this project will help my artists do just that. The listed wire racks will make it easier for our students to see and care for their artwork. A display of 3D art on wire racks is sure to inspire creativity and independence in our artists.

My goal for this project is to cultivate an art studio where artists feel empowered to reach their potential by nurturing their creativity while developing their independence. The materials in this project will help us reach this goal.
