Children's Vision V: Creative Art from Kennebunk Elementary and Sea Road Schools 

An exhibition entitled “Children’s Vision V” by students from Sea Road School and Kennebunk Elementary School will be on display at the Kennebunk Free Library in Hank’s Gallery during the month of March.  The public is invited to view the exhibit during regular Library hours.  (Library hours are as follows: Monday and Tuesday 9:30 a.m. - 8:00 p.m., Wednesday 12:30 p.m.-8:00 p.m., Thursday and Friday, 9:30 a.m. -5:00 p.m., Saturday, 9:30 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.)

The Visual Arts Teachers at Sea Rd. School and Kennebunk Elementary School, Darlene Nein and Kathy Marquis, have gathered a collection of student work grades K-5 to share with our community. The exhibit is a sampling of a variety of mediums that students explore, design and create within their specified art program.

As art educators, Darlene and Kathy contribute to learning through knowledge, production, and critical analysis of art. The program aspires to meet the needs of all students, instilling personal success, stimulating spoken and written literacy, and promoting a sense of global awareness.

The arts enhance problem solving, risk taking and critical thinking.  Art is a language of visual images. It provides opportunities for expressive language, ability to understand, respond to, and talk about visual images.  The arts enable students to establish links between subjects and a variety of cultures.  The Arts provide a vehicle to care about our communities and our environment.

The Kennebunk Free Library is pleased and honored to be able to present these very talented artists for the month of March.
