On May 23-June 2nd, The Grant Street Gallery is showcasing the Art Department's Spring Show. "Overall, choosing a favorite work is very difficult because all of the work is remarkable and exquisite in their own way," said Evan Haase, Art Educator. "It is always a little frightening to display your work on a pedestal for the world to see, however, when students are given that opportunity, it is truly amazing to see their excitement and joy when various teachers and students compliment them on their craft and creativity."
