Spring Band Concert & Art Show!






It is the time of year when we come together to enjoy and celebrate the hard work of our student artists. Under the direction of our band director, Mrs. Marjorie Lee, our Beginner and Advanced Bands will perform this Tuesday night at 6:30! 

Also, the best artwork from all of our upper and lower school artists will be on display. This is a competition as well; prizes will be awarded for the most outstanding visual art pieces in each category. 

Lower school art will be displayed on the second floor hallway. Upper school art will be displayed on the third floor hallway. 

It is an honor for each piece to be included in the art show; these are the most creative and well crafted pieces done by our students this year. Each student enrolled in art class has at least one piece of art represented! 

Please take the time to encourage your child's efforts - sometimes it is not easy when practicing new skills and it can be humbling for attempts to be put on display. Everyone can be good at something as it relates to visual art, whether it is coming up with interesting ideas, drawing skills, painting, engineering/building, good design, or visual communication. All students can be proud of their achievements in this art show!

A few students will go home as "winners," with ribbons and prizes, but ALL of our students win this show. 

Our Art Show Judge is an art teacher with Vestavia Hills City Schools. She will be judging art pieces generally based on creativity, completeness/effort, the level of skill displayed, overall design, and craftsmanship. (Our youngest artists' categories will be judged only on effort and creativity.)

I am very proud of our students' hard work! Each and every piece represents effort, creativity, and expresses the unique voice of the student who made it.
