Our annual Spring Art Show opened on May 19 concurrent with our 4th-12th Grade Spring Band and Choral Concert. Students, family members, and friends enjoyed walking the first floor hallways before and after the concert to view paintings, sculptures, collages, scratch art, origami, and other artwork created by students from the 1st-12th grades that was on display on the hallway walls.
High school artwork that had competed in the recent Atlantic County Teen Arts Festival was also on display in the gym. Artwork in the Art Show will remain on display until the end of the school year.
During the concert, Elementary Principal Gail Alford recognized and thanked art teacher Sherry Mirakian for putting together an outstanding art show. She also announced that Mirakian is retiring after leading the ACS Art Department since 2017. Prior to coming to ACS, Mirakian taught art for 31 years at the William Davies Middle School in Mays Landing.
