Fleetwood Holds Annual Art Event

On 25 February, 2017, the Fleetwood Art Department hosted the annual Art Event.

Students of all grades from a variety of art classes held their own creation stations for local children to come take part in fundraising for the department.

“To prepare for the art event, we had to line up each station and collect necessary materials. Prices had to be set for each stand, and the students responsible for the area set up their station.  Vendors were also contacted, and performances were based on student sign-up,” junior Aubrey Laity said.

Their hard work certainly paid off.

“Art event was so fun! It was neat to work together with peers to provide a fun event for the community,” junior Maya Evans said.

Some stations  that kids could enjoy included Spin Art, Snow Globe Making, Bubble Art, and Rock Painting. Rebecca Duca won the award for best station with her snow globe making table.  

Many older students from the school attended in support of the department as well.

“My favorite part of the event was seeing all of my artsy friends being around the things that they have a passion for,” junior Sebastian Kukielka said.

Those who attended appreciated the work that art students put forth to make the day possible.

“The art event offered a unique environment that felt welcoming to all. Many of the art students put so much time into this event, and it definitely paid off. I had a great time,” senior Emma Davies said.
