Art

On March 5  to March 27, student artists display their works, alongside their teachers’ works, at this year’s Common Thread Art Show at the Kirkland Town Library.

This year, there will be a closing reception on March 27 from 4:30 - 6:30 p.m. The concept of this show is based around the student and his or her teacher creating pieces of art, while sharing common materials or themes.

Jon’Nasia Dawson, an 11^th grader, has her ceramic piece, “Oh Deer, The Cabin is Calling and I Must Go,” displayed alongside Miss Davis’s piece, “Raku Vase.”

Seventh grader, Adilynn Kane’s, “Snow Leopard Hunting,” is exhibited with Mrs. Wander’s drawing, “Stella.”

On January 21, 50 awards were received by Whitesboro students in the Annual Scholastic Art Competition out of around 4500 pieces. The artworks were displayed at Onondaga Community College and many of these works will be displayed in our District Art Show at our high school on May 9.

Two students were acknowledged with special awards. Madeline Aiello, a senior, received a Silver Key Award for her portfolio. Eighth grader, Trinity Stacy received the Sage Scholar’s Best 3-D Jr. High Award.

All Gold Key pieces will go on to be judged at the national level. All of the hard work and efforts of our students, parents, faculty, department, administration, Board of Education and the community create the atmosphere for this to happen. We appreciate everyone's support and guidance. We appreciate everyone who volunteered for judging, hanging the show and working at the award ceremony.

Congratulations!
