LMMS Art Classes Prepare for Fine Arts Festival
This Saturday, April 29th is the BIG DAY - the annual Little Miami Fine Arts Festival! As preparation, art classes at LMMS have been working hard & designing souvenir post cards for festival attendees! We stopped by Mrs. Boland’s Fifth Bell class of Sixth Graders to learn more about their creative passion & desire to share joy with others through art!
Mason W. shared that art means so much to him because, he “feels able to be comfortable with who he is and can express himself.” When asked why having a class period during the day to unwind and be creative, students were emphatic that art class helps them escape the stress that can occur during the school day. As students shared more about their post cards, they were excited to hopefully show that every piece of an art project means something and every detail matters, which they hope is thought provoking for the viewer. Grayson C. shares that the opportunity to create art is so important because it gives “complete freedom to draw whatever you want to draw with no set guidelines and lots of choices for expression and outlets to let go of other things going on.”
It was amazing to see just how intentional and uniquely crafted each post card truly is. Students were excited to share more about their designs and Zach A. shares that he hope that visitors to the Fine Arts Festival leave the Festival with a positive attitude and happiness! Natalie G. hopes that “people come back and see the different creativity from the younger students and how they grow throughout the years artistically.”
