October is Hispanic Heritage Month and the students have been studying up on the history of Mexico and surrounding Central American countries like Guatemala. Much of the work we are doing is inspired by holidays and folk art of the region. Please follow our twitter feed for quick updates and photos. Posts include pictures of students creating yarn paintings inspired by the Huichol people of Mexico and students creating patterns on paper strips getting ready to weave. Also, we are talking about Dia de los Muertos, Day of the Dead. Students are drawing lots of skulls with awesome designs and beautiful colors!
A great month for art!!!
Really an interesting article you have shared.
