Middle School Student Art Show
More photos will be updated to this post in the future, but this snippet represents a great success for Middle School students. Every student in grades 6-8 have completed a long term (15-20 hour) explorative, skill-building, multi-discipline unit in the TBS Art Studio and the project results are stunning. Student focus pages will contain documented photos of these works in the next month, please come back and enjoy the online Art Show.


And because it can not be said enough...
