Recap of Rye Neck's K-5 Art Show!

Students worked incredibly hard to create and submit art to be displayed during the district's 2022 K-5 Art Show, which ran from May 10-12 at F.E. Bellows Elementary. The purpose of our elementary school art program is to provide avenues of expression through which students may explore the creative process. Students were exposed to a variety of media and techniques, and our students were encouraged to take risks and make fun and creative decisions in their pieces. We provide substantive learning experiences based on the New York State Standards for the Visual Arts.
