This Week in Art

Grades Two through Six will be participating in an exciting Food Friends Art Contest sponsored by Young Artists!  They will be invited to turn their favorite (or worst) food into a character and give it a name….example ~ a strawberry reading.   Drawings will be showcased in a beautiful full-color book series.  The winning school will get a $1,000 gift card as well as prizes and a copy of the book.  Good luck to all classes!
