Save the Date - ARTSY 2021

With great pleasure, the Alton School District has once again been invited to participate in the 24th Annual ARTSY- THERAPEUTIC ARTS FOR YOUTH-Art Exhibit. Students participating in the art therapy program have been invited to share their art in this special exhibit designed to increase self-esteem and highlight the accomplishments that youth make.

 

Unfortunately, the 2020 exhibit was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This year, ARTSY has developed a new plan. The 2021’s ARTSY Exhibit will be in a virtual gallery, where students and families can explore the gallery using their computer or other devices with an internet connection. We will share the link to the exhibit on opening day.

  

The ARTSY Exhibition will be from 

April 30th-June 6th.

 Mark Twain School is committed to

"Spread Love and Kindness"!

We created three bulletin Boards to visually show the effort.

Students are participating by recognizing an act of kindness and writing it on a paper heart to be placed on the boards. They are also contributing to the making of the "Chain of Hearts".

For the chain of hearts, the students decorate a strip of paper on the outside and write on the inside a kind message to a person in their life that is going through a hard time or to whom they have a strong connection.

We will focus on this for the month of February, but we hope the love and kindness will carry on for a lifetime.
