Again this summer, the Hickman County Arts Council is pleased to display pieces of two dimensional art from students in both Hickman County Elementary and Hickman County High School. The artwork will be on display in one of the courthouse display cases through the month of August.

The work completed by our budding artists under the direction of Mr. Rick Harrison, include pieces from Blythe Armbruster - K; Kaylee Sumner - 1st; Brec Byassee and Sydnee Bailey - 2; Austin Edwards and Cayce Higgins - 3; Anna Howell, Kenzie Curray, and Ellie Davis - 4; Carly Boaz, Abbey Fincher, and Abbie Nanny - 5; Madison Coates, Bella Batts, Desi Williams, and Caitlyn Toombs - 6; Joseph Porter, Adriann Crider, and Winter Smith - 9; and Melody Russell - 12.

Many of these students focused on a particular artist and rendered their interpretation of that artist's work including works by Kandinsky, Cezanne, Monet, and Georgia O'Keefe. Other student's work focused on the techniques of print making and block printing.

It would be worth your time and effort to stop by our courthouse and admire the work of these student artists.
