SPPS Art Students Create Art for Healing

Cindi Russell of SPPS sends this update:

The elementary students at Sts. Peter and Paul School have created a mural to share with the families and children at the UK Children’s Hospital.  Art teacher, Hayley Harris asked the students to come up with an idea to cheer up the children in the hospital and their families.  They came up with the idea of smiling animals.  After students had created many smiling animals, the Art Club put them together into a cheerful mural, “The Smiling Animal Mural”. 


The public cannot view the mural.  It is displayed in a part of the hospital where only children being treated and their families are allowed.  After it is taken down, it will be displayed at the school so that all can enjoy it.
