Teen Wall Art

April 05, 2012

As many of you already know, we’ve been revamping our teen area! If you haven’t seen it lately, we now have a chalkboard table that you can write/draw on, board games, card games, and a big bulletin board in the teen corner! To fill the big bulletin board in the teen section, I asked the Excelsior Springs High School Art Teacher, Jeri Bowen, if we could display some of the artwork done by students in her classes. We are now pleased to have a beautiful collage of student artwork from the Advanced 2-D Art Class (Two-dimensional art). 

In addition to agreeing to let us hang their art on our wall, Mrs. Bowen’s students are also creating a couple of other pieces for us that we are excited to see completed. Several students have agreed to make a special sign declaring the new section is for teens! Another class is fixing up two old chairs that will sit at our chalkboard table! We are proud to be showcasing pieces from aspiring artists in the community and hope you will come see them in person at our library!
