Our Tiny Friends and Foes Exhibit

By Marcia Beckett | December 23, 2010 - 3:09 pm |July 5, 2024 fabric, fifth grade, science, sixth grade

My students participated in a community art exhibit at the Overture Center in Madison, WI. The exhibit was fiber representations of microorganisms. The opening was this past Friday and it was amazing! All of the kids’ artwork was displayed, alongside other community artists. Here is a link to all of OUR microorganisms. You can see my post about this process here.

Here are some pictures of the gallery opening night. My students’ work (and my own microorganism) is mixed in with the other artists’ works.
