And the “Art Star” of the Month is...
I wanted to send a “Thank You” to all of
those who have helped out the Art Program
over the past month with art supplies and mate-
rials, including Corrine V. (Principal) and
Christine C. (Rm. 119).
To all of you (and those of you that I may have
missed) I say…
“Thank You!!”

Upcoming Art Show
During the month of March students created two
different “Sun” sculptures.
Version 1 (Pictures 1 & 2), was meant to be a
whimsical depiction of the “Sun”. Students created
the center portion by taping newspaper to a piece
of cardboard. They later used glue and paper tow-
els to cover this form (Decoupage). After this
had dried overnight, yellow tempera paint was ap-
plied and facial details were added (pom-pom nose,
wiggle eyes, and construction paper mouth).
Version 2 (Pictures 3 & 4), has the same center
portion as Version 1 (minus the facial details). In
this version, students added hand painted and col-
ored “Rays” to create a more stylized “Sun”.
ACA Art Education Department and the Adult Education Program will having
another group art show.
The exhibit will be held at the Artist’s Collective gallery in Hyde Park (4338 Albany-Post
Rd). It will run from May 16th to May 19th (6-8pm) with an opening reception on May
15th.
I hope to see everyone there!!
