Anna Bier Gallery presents second annual
elementary art exhibit
This past Sunday, February 10, marked the Second Annual Elementary Art
Exhibit in the Anna Bier Gallery. There were nearly 50 entries
submitted collectively by Greenville, Versailles, St. Mary’s, DeColores
Montessori and the Homeschool Community.
The open house took place on Sunday between 12-2pm with the award
ceremony held at 1pm. The exhibit reflected the works of children
between Kindergarten and Sixth grades and their work did not
disappoint. It was such a beautiful display of creative talent across
the board and despite the weather, parents, teachers and patrons came
out and filled the gallery with overwhelming support.
We would like to encourage all Darke County schools to participate in
the future as this has been a wonderful platform for young artists to
express their creativity and share their work with our community. We
are grateful for the opportunity to put on such a wonderful exhibit and
would like to offer a special thank you to the Darke County Foundation,
the Ketrow Foundation and all of our gallery members for their
continued support.
The gallery invited two outside judges to take on the difficult task of
award placement for each grade. We would like to congratulate the
following place-earning artists: (2D Category) KINDERGARTEN: Ashlyn
