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

My students have found a new love for pixel art. It may be comprised of retro designs but my students say they are the coolest thing around!

I want to help my students create amazing pixel art using Perler Beads.

My students recently discovered perler beads and since that day they have been asking non stop to make art with them. The problem is that they are expensive and many students cannot afford them. I want to use my donation to purchase many different perler bead designs, beads, and trays so my students can create as many designs as they can!

Without your support my students will have very limited access to perler beads and they will not get to experience this awesome artform!
