The Art of Discovery Project will soon be heading to Enatai! This year’s event will be held on November 19, 21, and 22.

The traveling exhibit theme this year will be Exploring Wildlife in Art: Free and Untamed and consist of art pieces by local artists such as Sherry Markovitz, Kenneth Callahan, Catherine Eaton Skinner, Philip McCracken, and more.
Please let Ms. Davidson (davidsonje@bsd405.org) know if you have any questions about this event.
