The Countywide Art Show took place Saturday, April 24 at Battlefield High School. Thanks to the students and parents who came out. The students at Mullen are doing great work in art. There were many positive comments from people walking by. For those who could not make it, I have included pictures.
The 5th grade art club students are sewing their pages together for the books. We have created cover art as well. The last day for Art Club is June 2.
There is a chart outside the art room letting students know when they have a messy art day. On those days they should not wear brand new clothes. I have art shirts for them to wear over their clothes but save the fancy clothes for another day. We use baby wipes for clean up in the art room. If you would like to donate a box of baby wipes have your child bring them to the art room. Thank you in advance for supporting the arts.
Encourage your child to draw or color whenever they can.
