Generate at least three distinct art and design studio proposals in response to a community problem identified in previous lessons.
Produce accompanying notes for each proposal that explain the concept, materials needed, and how the artwork addresses the identified problem.
Present proposals in at least two different formats chosen from 2D, 3D, or mixed-media presentations.
