Fourth-grade art students at Evans Elementary School in Limerick recently painted mural for their school.

Fourth-grade art students at Evans Elementary School, Limerick, recently completed a painted mural for their school. The students have been working with their art teacher, Christina Moyer, and profession­al Bucks County-based artist Denise Romano Bright. They used images of items and ideas that reminded them of their “Scholastic Journey.” Students designed the mural and continued to paint sections in small groups with the help and guidance of Bright. The project is a gift from the fourth grade students to the community.

The project was facilitate­d by art teacher, Christina Moyer, and Jacqueline Clarke Havrilla, principal. This project is sponsored by The Evans Elementary Home and School Associatio­n and is supported by the administra­tion. Dedication will take place at 6 p.m. on May 8 at Evans Elementary School.

This Artist in Residence Program with Spring-Ford Area School District is coordinate­d by Art’s Alive!, a local program that brings profession­al artists together with students and communitie­s to produce permanent works of art. Robyn Burckhardt, coordinato­r, is available through RobynBBurc­khardt@gmail.com. Artists for multi-media projects are available for communitie­s, businesses and schools in the area.
