During the annual end-of-year field day last Wednesday, May 22, Holyoke Elementary School students gave their parents a tour around the school gymnasium, where art made in all grade levels of Jade Goldenstein’s art classes was displayed. Art pieces included observational drawings by kindergartners and first graders, infographics by second graders, 3D installations by third graders, and a jigsaw puzzle and Renaissance-inspired artworks by fifth and sixth graders. All classes also made painted clay projects. — The Holyoke Enterprise | Johnson Publications
