A Day in the Arts - Huge Success

A Day in the Arts 2009 was a huge success! In the morning our students experienced lots of different arts experiences from fish printing to African dance to creating a collage to drawing cartoons to playing the harmonica to learning about photography to dance choreography to musical theater just to name a few. Over 18 artists shared their talents during the workshops. Then in the afternoon Opera Iowa conducted workshops for the 5th Grade class and then performed The Story of George Washington Carver to the entire school. It was a full but exciting day!

A special thank you to Principal Mrs. Burton, our teachers and staff. A huge thanks to all our parent volunteers and parent artists. A Day in the Arts would not be possible without everyone's support - it helps make Hanawalt a very special place!

Thank you again!
