On Wednesday, the 8th grade art students had the opportunity to visit EIU's Doudna and Tarble Art student displays. They walked through, looked at, and handled some of the art that was on display. On Thursday, the 7th grade art students visited Diligent Hands Metalworking. They designed and cut their own signs! In the afternoon, both classes attended Mr. Graves's Pottery class and were able to create two pieces of pottery!
