Young learners in USD 428 are inviting the community to view highlights of their artistic accomplishments from the past year during the 24th Annual “Watching Artists Grow” virtual art show.

The show is categorized by school building and features over 1,300 works of art from USD 428 K-6 students. Students were asked to select a piece to share with the community – the piece they felt was their best work.

“Our students have learned a great deal throughout the year, and put a lot of effort into their work,” said Shannon Wedel, USD 428 art teacher. “This virtual art show is a great opportunity to showcase their efforts in a platform that can be shared with family near and far.”

The community is invited to visit https://tinyurl.com/428k-6art to view the art show.
