East York Art Students
Congratulations to twenty East York third grade students whose art work was selected and displayed at the Charles Demuth Museum in Lancaster, Pa. during the month of December, 2011. Supported by the museum’s “Art in a Box” educational program, educational materials were generously offered for all third grade students to learn about the life and art of Lancaster native, Charles Demuth. Based on the painting by Demuth called “The Figure Five in Gold” all third grade students created designs depicting their own interpretations of Demuth’s style. Space was given in the museum for twenty student’s art work to be viewed by the public, and an Opening Exhibition was generously offered for our students, parents, and friends. The following East York students’ art work was featured: Sierra Noll, Steven File, Alivia Scott, Madison Aument, Kristian Calime, Douglas McDunnell, Caitlin Springer, Emma Tibbett, Sarah Rivera, Sienna Rivera, Devlin Ravegum, Nick Richardson, Kim Nguyen, Haylee Campbell, Tina Pham, Kaily Herr, Brenden Petersen, Olivia Hayes, Sharron Tum, Christian Stauffer.
