Take a trip to a happy place
By Marilyn Delk - DCCA News
If you are feeling a little gloomy, if lack of interaction with others has you down, if uncertainty about what the future holds leaves you kind of tense, I know where you can go to brighten your spirits, cheer yourself up, calm your nerves.
You will need internet access, because that place is on YouTube, but here’s the address for Anna Bier Gallery’s 2021 K-8 Art exhibit, which will transport you to a happy place: https://youtu.be/ZKHrlwGEdwk
Anna Bier Gallery Director Tamera McNulty annually contacts all Darke County elementary schools as well as the home school community to solicit entries for the Gallery’s Springtime exhibit; this year, participating schools include DeColores Montessori School, Greenville City School, St. Mary’s Catholic School, and Versailles Exempted Village School. Although restrictions due to the COVID-19 pandemic preclude a physical show in the Gallery, the students’ artistic efforts are a joy to behold, exhibiting amazing imagination and creativity. Greenville High School Art Instructor Melanie Huffman and a group of her third-level students judged the artwork, making difficult choices about which pieces would receive ribbons and cash prizes in addition to the participation certificates awarded to all of the young artists whose work was submitted.
