Decora@ng Kroger Grocery Store Bags – Big Walnut Elementary and Harrison Street Elementary Schools<br />
THE POWER OF ART<br />
Big Walnut Elementary and Harrison Street Elementary students<br />
created bags with a message and illustration that focuses on why<br />
Art is important to them. We participated in this project to celebrate<br />
Youth Art Month in our community. These bags will be given out to<br />
customers in the community when they shop at Kroger.<br />
What is Youth Art Month?<br />
The Council for Art Education (CFAE) administers Youth Art Month<br />
at the national level. Festivities take place annually, traditionally<br />
each March, to celebrate visual arts for grades K – 12. The Youth<br />
Art Month Program emphasizes the value of art education for all<br />
children, encourages support for quality school art programs, and<br />
promotes art material safety. Youth Art Month also provides a<br />
forum for recognizing skills developed through visual arts<br />
experiences that are not possible in other curriculum subjects.<br />
