DEHTMS Art Show

A H-U-G-E Success!!

Over 100 students and their families came to the 4th annual DEHTMS’s Art Show.  The range of artistic talent was extensive and led under the artistic development of Mr. Torrey Green.  The December 15th art show was an occasion for Don Estridge families to see the artistic endeavors of their favorite students as well as an opportunity to raise needed funds for the art department.  More than $600 was raised during the fundraiser, with prices ranging from $5 for unframed art and $10 for framed pieces of art.

Several mediums were used.  From paper-mache rams and octopus, to scratchboard fashions based on Australian artist Gustav Klimt.  Mr. Green has a variety of students whose talents range from basic beginners to more fully fledged students. Some of the young artists have been working under Mr. Green’s artistic leadership since their 6th grade year.  Those student who show an aptitude for art participate in his advanced 4th period class.

In addition to the generous donation of pizza and drinks, parent support was provided by way of volunteers like Maureen Sales and Mrs. Brunner.
