St. Peter Catholic School artists are participating in a nation-wide effort to encourage and inspire people suffering in Ukraine.
Ms. Thurman connected with other art rooms in the USA who are creating artwork in solidarity with the Ukrainian families affected by the war. Art students participated in creating uplifting and empowering artwork using various mediums, including paint, oil pastel, markers, and colored pencils to communicate a message of compassion and hope.
Art students learned that, throughout history, artists have come together to create artwork to support those suffering. Students engaged with symbols representing peace and unity in their artwork. We reflected on Pope Francis's call to the "peacemakers" to become helpers during the war.
We stand in solidarity with the families suffering in Ukraine. We hope that our messages of Jesus's love and compassion will bring them peace during this grievous war.
Ms. Thurman is busy scanning and uploading our artwork into a Google Doc, which will be viewable by Ukrainian teachers, staff, and students. Please see below for student artwork and a glimpse of what the digital "gallery" looks like:
