Perkins’ Picassos

You are invited to the Visionary Artists Ceremony at the Des Moines Arts Festival on Saturday, June 28, 2014, at 11:30 a.m. on the GuideOne Insurance Performing Arts Stage (located on the Meredith Corporation lawn at the corner of 16th and Locust St.) for all students participating in the Hubbell Homes’ Nurturing a Student’s Vision (NSV) program.

Four students from Perkins have had their art pieces chosen to be displayed during the Arts Festival. Eder Gasca (1st grade), Gone Agoth (2nd grade), Delia Macfarland (3rd grade), and Jacob Frencher (5th grade) are the students whose art will be displayed in June. The entire Arts Festival will run from June 27-29 in downtown Des Moines’ Western Gateway Park. If you can’t make the festival, don’t worry, after the festival all NSV artwork will be displayed throughout downtown Des Moines’ Central Library (1000 Grand Ave.). Hubbell Homes will also host a fall reception at the library on August 20 at 6 p.m.
