W e generally hav e sev eral hundred Ceramics students <br />enrolled each year between our three high schools. Because this is a <br />hands-on class, and because learning will take place v irtually for at <br />least the first semester of the 2020-21 school year, enrollment may <br />be down. Nonetheless, we expect at least 150 Ceramics students to <br />be inv olv ed. The racial composition of the classes is anticipated to <br />be: African American-10%; Asian/Pacific Islander-14%; Caucasian- <br />53%; Hispanic/Latino-16%; Nativ e American-1%; Other-6%. <br />Location Description In school buildings are open in the second semester, Delores Hayes <br />will v isit CHCCS high school Ceramics classes. If learning is still <br />taking place v irtually, then classes will take place online. <br />Artist Description Delores Hayes is a black potter who is originally from Durham, NC. <br />She is a graduate of North Carolina Central Univ ersity and has been <br />creating Art and Pottery in Durham since 2012.

Her work has been <br />featured at The Nasher, Claymakers, The Chapel Hill Art Gallery, The <br />Carrboro ArtsCenter, Green Hill, Burlington Arts Center, and The <br />North Carolina Pottery Center in Seagrov e North Carolina. <br />Are you hiring <br />multicultural artists <br />with the requested <br />funds from this <br />grant? <br />Yes <br />For each multicultural <br />artist you intend to <br />hire, please list their <br />name, race, and how <br />much you plan to pay <br />them. <br />$3,000 <br />How will the <br />project/program be <br />publicized and <br />promoted to reach <br />intended <br />participants? <br />Students will hear from their Ceramics teacher about the opportunity <br />to learn from Delores Hayes.
