March's Banner Art

This month's banner is a little different than the others have been.  It shows a small detail on a very large art project that was a collaborative effort.

Union Township provided two large, plastic flower pots to Merwin, each roughly 4' tall and 3' across.  Art teacher Mrs. Garrett and some creative first graders decorated the flower pots with stunning spring plants, flowers, and creatures.  They not only used paint, but also various sizes, colors and types of plastic caps and lids. There are even halves of plastic Easter eggs on there!  The Merwin flower pots will be on display along with decorated pots from other West Clermont elementary schools in the spring in the Eastgate shopping area.

Thanks to Mrs. Garrett and to all the first graders who participated in this project!  Your recycled-object art will make our community a little more beautiful!
