Wow, it's been awhile. I'll have to step it up in the coming days...
Anyway! We had the art show to display our students' art last week. Even though none of my students showed up, while I was/am a little disappointed by that, I thought it was a great event.
I took a small amount of joy from creating the program for the art show. It was simple, yes. It wasn't the way I'd pictured it exactly, but it was mine. It turned out to be a serviceable program in the end, which is all that matters really (in my opinion)! Although, it was missing one person's class' art (sorry Heather!). Anyway, I was pleased with the end result. Thanks to those that helped to fold the things! We ended up printing way too many, but you know what? Hindsight is 20/20.
I also actually enjoyed helping to set up some of the displays and conversing with everyone who was there to help set up.
I hope those photos behind the banner turned out all right!
To end this entry, here is a photo of my little display. It's cedar bark that's been woven into little mats. My original idea was to create a larger mat out of the smaller mats but that did not pan out the way I'd have liked. This wind chime type of display turned out just as good or better, I think!
The programs were an important addition to the show - thanks again! I wanted people to discover that there are many kinds of roles in organizing an event like this and having it go smoothly - room for many people to contribute from an area of strength or comfort. I especially appreciated your cedar weaving pieces because I had read your lesson plans. That was a neat way to display them and they certainly added variety to the show.
