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 Students

My students live in an inner-city struggling through issues of language barriers, crime, violence, and poverty, but despite it all, they foster and maintain a high level of hope and pride in their city.

The culture of the community is highly creative and expressive in many aspects of the arts, from visual arts to theater, from music to dance.

The people and students here support and embrace the creative arts unlike many wealthier areas, and the people shine very brightly because of it.

My Project

The generous donations made to my classroom will help my students gain access to many high-quality art supplies such as gel pens, Prismacolor colored pencils, watercolor colored pencils, scratchboards, and many types of drawing paper. All of these supplies are materials that normally my students would not have access to based on budgeting.

The fine art materials your donation has allowed us to purchase has brought a great sense of excitement and anticipation amongst the students.

They are looking forward to using the wide variety of drawing supplies to help them create Social Justice artwork of their choice. My students have a deep understanding of injustice socially and economically and will use these supplies to tell their stories as they see fit.
