This annual exhibit serves as a community and educational resource. Visiting first grade students from Smithland Elementary School talk about art and go on a scavenger hunt with their teacher, Mrs. Suzanne Gilchrist-Thompson.
Elementary Education students use the art exhibition as a tool for learning about the teacher's role in fostering creativity.
