“This exhibit is a celebration of color and imagination,” said Karen Reckner, executive director of the arts council. “The children have expressed themselves in their own fun and unique ways.” Pictured above left is a painting by Lori Lytle, a second grader at Friendsville Elementary School, and at right is a collage work by Alexia Wolf, a first grader of Kitzmiller Elementary. In addition to paintings and collages, the exhibit includes yarn art and re-purposed items such as sea shells and buttons. Some students created self-portraits, and others worked to recreate the style of master artists. The exhibit will be on display through March 30. The public is encouraged to visit. The gallery hours are 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Saturday. For more information, persons may call 301-334-6580.
