Art Enrichment
Art Enrichment is a fun, rewarding and educational program that supplements our students’ art education with parent-led projects throughout the school year. Classes in every grade study 6 artists and produce their own version of the technique and style examined in class. Projects are displayed in the hallways throughout our school. For more information, contact EnrichmentVP@gfespta.com.
