Arkansas Arts Academy -

Honoring Ms. Carethers, Ms. Dale and Dr. Langley during National Assistant Principal Week. We are so grateful you are at AAA!

Arkansas Arts Academy High School, presents “It's EVERYWHERE!” The Arkansas Arts Academy High School 3D Sculpture class, taught by Carrie Haase, constructed 2D and 3D works of art using cardboard. They were challenged to create a piece with personal significance while exploring techniques that help us see cardboard as a plentiful art medium rather than trash to be recycled. Some students chose to disguise the cardboard with paint while others saw beauty in its natural state.

Make plans to attend Art on the Bricks April 13 from 4:30-7:30 pm in Downtown Rogers. April is National Recycling Month so the theme is REuse, Restore, REclaim, REcycle and REpurpose. Art on the Bricks will highlight artists that produce work that comes from items that are recycled or repurposed. For more information and a map of exhibition locations visit https://artonthebricks.com/
