Student Art Show at the Mall

We had our regional art show through the Wisconsin Art Education Association this week.  The artwork was displayed all week at the local mall.  Many schools participated with art from kids in grades K-12.  It is always so fun to see what other schools are doing.  The high school artwork is always so amazing!  We had our closing reception today and many families showed up.  It was a great turnout despite the freezing rain.  One artwork from each teacher was chosen to advance to the state art show which is held here in Madison in the Capitol Building.  That show is held during March, which is Youth Art Month.  Here are some pictures of my students’ artwork.

Full panel of artwork. I realized after I hung it that I could have chosen a few more artworks. Last year I chose more and I struggled to fit them all on the board.

Three artworks from each teacher were awarded ribbons (blue, red and white). This bird painting got an award from Sax art company and she got a gift certificate to buy art supplies.

When we got home tonight, Grandma and Grandpa came over for dinner and surprised Daria with this cute Care Bear costume. She was dancing around in it all night until bed time.
