Commons Area "POPS" with color!

After many hours of painting and processing, the end is in sight! 5th grade girls are helping to put the wallpaper paste on the back of art work.


Artist Mary Wipf, Sandy Klatt and son Carter were up on the lift to wallpaper the students' art work to each soffit in the Commons Area. It was quite a process to work the bubbles out and cover the area ~ also a challenge was to have each section match up with the next!





Students and staff gathered in the Commons Area at 8:25 Monday morning for the "unveiling". Art work was covered by brown paper until the exact time.

Kindergarten and first grade art work will be finished and wallpapered by the end of this week. Many thanks to the Fred Assam Elementary PTA for sponsoring Artist Mary Wipf, Sandy Klatt for coordinating this project, Becky Blue & family for providing a home for Mary to stay, the many volunteer moms who helped with touch up painting, elementary staff for their flexible schedules to have students paint, and ~ most importantly ~ the students who made this art work come to life. The theme of the project is Acts of Kindness ~ something that the students and staff at Fred Assam Elementary promote every day! Be sure to stop in and enjoy our murals.
