Art Show

It's been super busy in the art room here at Love T. Nolan. We held our very first school-wide art show on February 26th in conjunction with the annual Black History Program and it was a hit! Take a look:

We were able to raise almost $400 for art supplies and Club projects!! A HUGE thank you to everyone who visited! Special thanks to Ms. Jones, Ms. Pullin, Ms. Bradley, Ms. Everson, my sister Jamie Traynor for helping out and especially to Dr. Lemons for purchasing seven framed artworks to hang in the school permanently! I'll post a picture of those masterpieces soon--they look beautiful in the front hallway.

Stay tuned for more updates!

Great News + Fav Artist Fridays!

My apologies for the delay in posts! I was out sick last week and spent this week catching up. I've returned with some pretty great news, though . . .

Super excited to announce that Art Club is officially open to 4th and 5th graders with recommendations from myself or homeroom teachers! We will be meeting every 1st and 3rd Wednesday from 2:45 to 3:45 in the Art Room. Our first meeting will be Wednesday, October 3rd.

If your student is nominated you will receive a detailed parent letter and permission form (also available for print below) to be returned with a $20 fee by Friday, September 28th.

 

I've got some really amazing stuff planned for our club--artist talks with professionals, contests, and a big surprise for the end of the year!

In other news, Love T. Nolan will be holding its very first Fine Arts Night and Art Show on February 26th, 2013 in conjunction with our annual Black History program!! We will be teaming up with Artomé and every LTN student will have work in the show that has been professionally matted and framed available for purchase to help raise money for the Art Department! More info soon.

Onward to Fav Artist Fridays! (after the jump)
