Thanks to State Senator Sal DiDomenico for extending the invitation to our students, and to

art teachers Briana Pierce and Josephine Dougan for coordinating the effort at EHS.

The works on display ranged from ethereal spirit animal paintings to observational still-life paintings, landscapes, crochet tapestry, imaginative paintings, three-dimensional sculptures, and hand-stitched embroidery.

“Envision” launched with an Opening Reception on Monday, April 8, giving students the chance to talk about their work with Senator DiDomenico, School Committee member Marcony Almeida-Barros, State House officials, and guests. They discussed their inspiration, creative process, and the importance of art in their lives.

The exhibit concluded on Tuesday, April 16, 2024.
