Nov. 11th, 2005 12:46 amMy computer was only out of commission for like four days and I feel like I haven't been able to do email or post to my journal in a month at least. I so need a life. :P
Anywho! I have exciting news but that shall wait for another post. This one is just a few pictures from the annual Art Show that my center has to earn money for the Bright Spaces were attempting to open up. For those that don't know a Bright Spaces is basically a center inside a shelter that provides safe, quality, care for children while their parents are out looking for jobs and stuff like that. I think we needed to earn like $600 more dollars to open one...not 100% sure though.
So! The show is really great, each classroom picks an artist or a project and all the kids do it. For the older kids practice with what their teachers picked (like last year Preschool Two did pop art and Campbell soup cans) and then eventually they do their final project. Even the infants get involved! I love it because the arts are so important to me, as several of you know my Mother was an art teacher and my brother is an artist. He's going to school right now to learn how to teach photography to high schoolers.
Anyway...without further ado...here are the pictures!

Hope you enjoyed the pictures!
