April 29 - Students in Mrs. Brown’s and Mrs. Wilson’s classes enjoyed a walking field trip to the Gallery of Dreams. They explored a variety of local artwork, connected classroom learning to real-world creativity, and had the opportunity to meet sculptor Tim Trask while observing him at work.
Students also got hands-on experience working with clay to create their own pieces, bringing the artistic process to life in a meaningful and memorable way.
A sincere thank you to the Gallery of Dreams for welcoming our students and for continuing to support creative learning in our community.
