Edison Art Show November 4th and Denver Arts Week November 5th - 13th!

Kicking off the Denver Arts Week is our very own "Art and Science" Art Show at Edison Elementary, Thursday, November 4, 2010 from 4-6:30pm in the auditorium. 

Thank you to everyone in the Edison Community for working so hard the last 2 years to bring the visual arts back to the students at Edison Elementary.  I have really enjoyed observing students' excitement and creativity in the art room!

Art and Science..... Students observe life in the Edison Garden as well as collect seeds!

We began our year exploring what we can do with paper!

Students were asked to create a list of things they could do with paper.  The ideas came quickly, such as drawing, folding, cutting, bending, rolling, curling, and pasting.  Origami was a favorite!
