Students Study Mexican Folk Art
For Hispanic Heritage Month students across grade levels learned about and made artworks inspired by Mexican Folk Art. Mexican Folk art is often inspired by nature and uses bright colors and patterns. Lower Elementary worked on Hojalata (Tin art) where they embossed their drawings onto tinfoil and added color with markers. Upper Elementary made traditional Alebrijes (Spirit guides/animals) from paper mache and Middle School students created Huichol yarn paintings. It was great to see the students' appreciation for traditional Mexican art and the joy they had making their unique works of art.
