“Come Play with Clay! Mud and Ice Cream Party at the Quinlan”

 In collaboration with the Greater Hall Chamber of Commerce, The Quinlan Visual Arts Center is proud to be a part of the Partners in Education (PIE) program. We will provide free of charge an incentive-based field trip to the class from each of the city elementary schools that has the best attendance in the first semester of the year. The class selected from each elementary school will receive an “Arty Attendance Party” that will feature our ceramics team and a fun and easy one-fire hand building project that is sure to delight and inspire with good muddy fun. Students will be instructed by a group of Quinlan teachers and complete one finished project each; previous ideas include bells, angels, mirrors, bugs, statues, plates, personalized signs and much more.

 The parties are scheduled for the following dates and times:

 Centennial Elementary:  Monday, March 21, 2011, 10AM-12PM

Enota Elementary: Wednesday, March 23, 2011, 10AM-12PM

Fair Street Elementary: Friday, March 25, 2011, 10AM-12PM

Gainesville Elementary: Monday, March 28, 2011, 10AM-12PM

New Holland Elementary: Wednesday, March 30, 2011, 10AM-12PM

Students should bring a sack lunch. A special ice cream treat will be sponsored by Truelove Dairy for dessert. 

Smocks will be provided but students should wear old clothes just in case!

Fair Street Elementary had a great time at their Arty Party! They also had the opportunity to view the Youth Art Month exhibition and picked out their favorites!

Even Executive Director, Amanda McClure had fun picking her favorite, too!
