DISTRICT 135 ART STUDENTS CELEBRATE NATIONAL YOUTH ART MONTH

Artwork from District 135 students in grades 1-8 will be featured at the Orland Park Public Library in celebration of National Youth Art Month.

The artwork of Orland School District students will be on display at the Orland Park Public Library from March 4-31, 2013. The artwork from grade 1-8 students include a variety of mediums including pencil drawings, watercolor paintings, clay sculpture and recycled material designs. Each year, the nine District 135 Art educators work with the Library in creating the display as a way to celebrate National Youth Art Month. Center School Art teacher Nancy Heuser notes, “The Art Show is a wonderful forum to showcase the many talents of our students in addition to gaining awareness about the importance of fine arts in school. We enjoy the opportunity to share the work of our students with the Orland Park community.”

The Orland Park Public Library is open Monday-Friday from 9am-9pm, Saturday 9am-5pm, and Sunday from 1pm-5pm. The Library is located at 14921 Ravinia Avenue in Orland Park and can be reached at 708-428-5100.
