Art Gallery

Our library currently has LOTS of white walls. I abhor the color white. That being said, I don't want to just throw junk on the wall. Luckily my mother  is full of amazing ideas and reminded me I had some inspirational quotes and paintings I made at paint parties that were already on canvases and waiting.

As I talked to another teacher she offered a painting of hers, and so the library art gallery was born. I asked other teachers if they would add art to the wall and several agreed. We have paintings, weavings, mixed medium, and photographs for our new gallery. One wall is quickly filling up. My hope is that we continue adding, changing out pieces, and even creating some new ones in class.



How do you decorate your classroom or library that makes it special or meaningful to you or your kids?

  1. That's awesome!

    In my Sunday School class, I have printouts (pictures or information) on the walls to remind the students of past lessons.

    1. That's perfect! It's always helpful for kiddos to look back and remind themselves. Especially when we point out those references and show them how to use it to jog their memory.
