New Art Opportunities
by Karen Stella
Being a part of Florida Hospital’s Art Gallery has been an amazing experience for student participants from Circle Christian School. You do not need to be attending classes at Circle to participate, but you must be a currently enrolled Circle student and follow the new theme presented every 4 months.
The new theme for Florida Hospital’s Art of Healing Gallery is called “It’s a Small World”. What kind of thoughts does that conjure up in your mind? Put them on a canvas and see what you create.
All artwork must be on canvas, have the student’s name and grade and “Circle Christian School” on the back of it. It must be wired and ready to be hung. Deliveries for the new theme may be taken directly to Florida Hospital in Altamonte by March 12th. They may also be taken to either campus and left for Mrs. Stella by March 7th. Opening date of exhibit will be Thursday, March 18th at 6:00 pm.
Want to see what the current artwork looks like? Take a visit to Florida Hospital Altamonte’s Art of Healing Gallery.
If you have a budding artist in your home who would like to participate, contact Volunteer Services Coordinator, Karen Stella. Circle students 4 – 12 are welcome to participate.
