Celebrating Artists in the Schools 25th Anniversary & Tribute to Madeline Hope
We hope you will join us this Friday, June 15th from 5:30-7:30 at Toby’s, to celebrate Gallery Route One’s Artists in the Schools Program 25th anniversary and to honor Madeline Nieto Hope for her past dynamic leadership of the program. We will also introduce Joe Fox, our new AIS director. The evening will include a reading by several 5th grade poets and a video of students sharing why they appreciate Madeline. We will serve cake and ice cream to top the evening off.
The Artists in the Schools Program combines art making and creative writing with environmental science. Naturalists, poets and artists work together with the students. The culmination of their endeavors from this school year is on display now in Toby’s Art Gallery through June 26th.
