I am excited to announce that two pieces of Presidio student artwork will be displayed at the University of Arizona Museum of Art (UAMA). I have selected one art piece each from junior, Nicholas Arrowsmith, and senior, Saul Beltran Gutierrez, to be a part of this year's exhibition Our Stories: High School Artists 2023. The exhibit will be on view Saturday, February 25th - Saturday, May 20th. Go check them out!
Remember when our HS senior, Michelle Dang, won the grand prize for the TAAG poster contest? In addition to Michelle, 4 of our other Presidio students made it to the "Top 50"! Congratulations to high schoolers Bailey Montierth, Taylor Mack, Tatiana Berley, and 7th grader, Deekshita Tanguturi. The winning artwork is now posted on the Pima County website.
Since we have a fresh batch of students in art class for the 2nd semester, the Kindergarteners, 2nd, 4th, and 7th graders focused on completing their pre-assessment piece of artwork this January.
In the elementary art classes, we kicked off the new semester getting to know each other. Students drew their own custom Lego Minifigures that included things that told me about themselves.
