Art Grant Recipient

LCMS Principal Kelly Davies, Joy Dobson and Mandy White

I was surprised today during 5th period by Bernadette Sexton and Mandy White from the West Ada Education Foundation with the news that I received the $500 Art Grant I put in for earlier this month.  So excited to use this money to purchase resources for my students that would otherwise be cost prohibitive.  Looking forward to instructing students about contemporary crafts/traditional art forms, like fiber and mosaic arts. I know that they will enjoy making fiber bowls and creating bright weavings with the yarn I will now be able to purchase, as well as designing eye-catching glass mosaics with the new ceramic and glass pieces I can now provide as materials. 

 A big thank you to the West Ada Education Foundation and it's generous donors for supporting the visual arts in our district!

2014 District Art Show

"Rustic Beauty"

8th grader Sarah Jane edged out the competition with her colorful watercolor of abstracted flowers to win LCMS's school entry into the Meridian School District Art Show this year.  Sarah Jane won a special award at last night's awards reception and will have her artwork displayed at the Eagle Chamber of Commerce throughout the upcoming year.

Congratulations to all of the student artists who competed this year!  As you can see from the display of entries shown below, we have a lot of talent at Lewis & Clark!
