​Galerie Old Chelsea is pleased to present the artworks by the art students from Symmes School and D’Arcy McGee High School in Aylmer.

 

About ten years ago, Galerie Old Chelsea approached a local Chelsea school to invite them to work on art during the year, culminating with an exhibit at the Galerie. Both the kids and the teacher were very enthusiastic, and we’ve been giving the opportunity to other schools ever since.

 

This year, we are delighted to showcase the art by Symmes Junior (Grades 7–8) and D’Arcy McGee High School (Grade 9) in Aylmer, Quebec. Their teacher, Heawon Chun, tells us that the works span a variety of materials and processes, including drawing, mixed media, collage, painting and needle felting.

 

Students were guided to work creatively while learning techniques that help them build confidence and skill with each medium.The works on display celebrate their commitment, imagination, and hard work.

 

Please join us in congratulating these young artists on their beautiful accomplishments.
