Since 2018, Emily Chipman’s Murray High School art students have been collaborating an artistic project with Murray Elementary School students.
Murray Elementary School students use their imaginations to describe a creature. These written assignments, that include a drawing, are then forwarded to MHS art students. Using stitching, patterns, and sewing skills, the high school students create a creature for the elementary school students.
“This is our favorite art project of the year because we learn a practical skill, sewing, while making something special for another person. We personally deliver the creatures to the students and that human connection makes it meaningful and special,” said Chipman. #murrayschools
