Hamilton schools celebrate Youth Art Month
In celebration of Youth Art Month, the artwork of students from throughout the Hamilton School District will be on display during March at the Pauline Haass Public Library, N64 W23820 Main St., Sussex. The public is invited to view the artwork during regular library hours.
A reception honoring the artists and their teachers was held March 4. During the reception a Hamilton High Jazz Band combo performed and art activities were offered in the Youth Services area. The Friends of the Pauline Haass Public Library provided refreshments.
Youth Art Month is celebrated each year to emphasize the value of art education for all children and to encourage public support for quality school art programs. It began in 1961 as Children's Art Month with support from the nonprofit Crayon, Water Color and Craft Institute and the National Art Education Association.
