March Is National Art Month

March is National Youth Art Month. Youth Art Month is a celebration of the visual arts. Student exhibitions, public artworks, art festivals, and school events are held all over the country to raise awareness and support for the importance of quality visual arts programs in the schools. In Abington we are displaying more than 650 pieces of art created by students in kindergarten through grade 4. The work will be on display at the Abington Public Library all month. BBES's exhibit will run from March 1 through March 18 and Woodsdale‘s will run from March 18 through March 31. Two Family/Community Viewing Afternoons will be hosted on March 7 for BBES and March 28 for Woodsdale. Both will be from 5-7. Thank you to the PTOs and the parents who helped us prepare the exhibit.
A few photographs of kindergarten and grade 1 artwork are below. The landscape outside your window may not be colorful at the moment, but the walls in the library are.
Students from the middle and high schools will have their work displayed at the new school during Celebrate The Arts Day on May 8 from 3:30 to 7:30. More details to follow.
