As a part of the Culture for Caring Symposium, sixth graders created digital artwork to promote community awareness on a local or global issue about which they were passionate. Students made full-sized posters using Sketches, a professional art application that helped them learn about the principles of design. Their vibrant, eye-catching art was then transformed into posters using a Canon imageProGraph large-format printer, which was purchased through a DEF grant and will be used for lots of innovative art projects in the years to come.
Posters for Change
