The Pleasantville High School’s Art Department cordially invites the public to the Sixth Annual High School Art Show at the Jacob Burns Film Center on Saturday, May 17, 2008 between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. A special presentation will be held at 11 a.m.
This one day event will include drawings, paintings, ceramics, photography and graphic arts from our talented young artists including award winning artwork by AP Art and National Art Honor Society students.
Among the many works of art on display, the event will feature portraits created by PHS students for “The Memory Project,” a nonprofit organization that provides orphans with mementos of their youth. The exhibit will also include table top mosaic designs created by students and senior citizens for the Clinton Street Senior Center in Pleasantville. The third series of student artists’ paintings for the “Portraits of Pleasantville” collection will be exhibited for the first time.
This occasion is a great testament to the combined efforts and support by Pleasantville High School’s administration and art faculty, led by James Maron, the Jacob Burns Film Center and FOVA (Friends of the Visual Arts).
Only seven years ago, the annual high school art show was open to the public only during intermission of the Spring Concert. Today, it is showcased in one of the premier arts organizations in the country.
