Arts Fest!

Arts Festival is an opportunity to show kids from all aspects of life that art is fun, approachable, and something for everyone.  It relates to all disciplines, and it can enrich, entertain, empower, amaze and inspire.   The weather stayed beautiful and we had an AWESOME day of art, music, sunshine, food, creativity, and community. Thanks to all of our student volunteers who made this day so successful!  You were really an amazing team!  Unfortunately, some of our students were running around getting work done even as we took this photo. 

I know more photos will be coming, but I wanted to post just a few. Thanks to the whole school community who came together to make such a great event possible! And thank you West Irondequoit PTSA for funding our visiting artists and musicians.

 

Our Henna table earned $146.00 to purchase emergency art supplies for Wilson Commencement, who had a fire that burned their art room to the point of making it unusable last week.  Wilson students and art staff lost thousands of dollars in art supplies, student work, along with years worth of treasures and lesson plans.   Our hearts go out to the students and teachers there who are mourning losses and needing to rebuild.
