'Spectrum of Emotion' is the title of our 2018 Little Ashcan Annual Exhibition. This project incorporated a storytelling session along with a series of projects to spark our students' curiosity. Each child was able to imagine what the characters would look like after taking a feel in our Mystery Box.
River of Words is a competition that celebrates the local watershed environment. Much of our wildlife depend on the waterways in Long Island and we had our students convey this message through their artwork. Our students learned watercolor techniques to paint the animals of their choice. Congratulations to Ethan K. on being a finalist in this year's competition.
One of the more difficult aspects in art is group work. Combining two completely different perspectives into a single work of art is a challenge our students had to face in this project. Our young students learned to work with one another while understanding the concept of recycling and reusing.
