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

Exploring new and different art materials is a source of inspiration for young artists who are opening the door into the magic of art. Students thrive in art classes where they have a range of quality art materials to explore and choose from to express their ideas. For example, watercolor pencils allow older students to explore and draw with an ease of control, combining the quality of paint with the flexibility of drawing. The younger students can color mixing in a new way using droppers and liquid watercolor to explore and observe how colors mix on the surface of the paper. Access to quality art materials helps enrich the students' art experience and learning.
