Small artists, big exhibit
Most painters struggle for years to get their work shown in a gallery, but some of the youngest artists at Stz’uminus have already had their own art show.
The Ladysmith Waterfront Gallery showed the work of children from Kindergarten to Grade 3 at Stz’uminus Primary School during a special exhibition that ran from March 31 to April 12. The students created their masterpieces as part of Grade 1 teacher Shanna Mastrangelo’s art club.
During an opening gala on April 1, Stz’uminus principal Charlotte Elliott thanked Mastrangelo for encouraging students to participate in the special exhibit.
