Student Art and Live Auction Sneak Peek!

PRICELESS STUDENT ART

We are delighted to showcase the artistic talents of our youngest scholars who have been working with Laguna parent and artist Cassandria Blackmore to create six masterpieces for the silent auction.

Over the past few weeks, students in grades EK-4 had the opportunity to work with Cassandria to create unique pieces of art resembling her unique style of reverse painting on glass. Laguna parent and Art Project Coordinator Tracey Inman explains, "Cassandria gave an artist talk with each EK through Grade 4 class and explained not only her creative process, but also the way that she has used her dyslexia as a gift. Then the students learned the technique of reverse painting and created bold color field abstract pieces inspired by the artist’s work.” Cassandria also shared her inspiring story with students in grades 5-12 at a special assembly on the Hope Ranch campus.

Each work of art will be featured in the silent auction at the Spring Benefit on Saturday, February 27.
