This Gallery page features a stencilling
project that took place at William Allen High School
in Allentown PA. The Spanish teacher hated looking at
the bare walls and felt they needed colour. Her students were
doing Mythology, folklore and literature of the Spanish speaking nations. Many of the stories are Aztec, Mayan and Incan based.
The text below
are extracts from letters written written by the pupils. Click on any of the
following extracts and you will be able to read some of the wonderful letters written by the pupils
involved in this project. Click on any of the pictures to go to our Aztec catalogue page.

and tradition of Spanish speaking nations through artistic works"...More

Who would pass that up?"...More
