Fifth Graders Box-Weave

During Be Creative Centers, some fifth graders created box weavings. Such talent! Weaving is a type of folk and functional art.

Last Year's Fifth Grade "Around the World" Artist in Residency Project

These flags were made with the fifth graders last year. Mrs. Braden coordinates an artist in residency every year with the Kentucky Museum of Art and Craft. Last year the students made flags that represented what the students wanted to be when they grew up or what their hopes and dreams were for the future.  They dyed the fabric and then embellished the flags.  Students also used words in different languages to communicate their wishes.  

This year we have a clay tile mural planned for the fifth grade to make with during the artist in residency.
