Artist Honored at Board of Education Meeting

Southwest Senior Jane Lee was honored at the Minneapolis Board of Education Meeting. Her painting was selected as the first piece to be mounted in the Dawn Mennes Permanent Art Collection at the Board of Education Offices.

Her art teacher Cecily Spano joined her at the presentation. The Fine Arts District Coordinator Patricia Teske presented Jane and Ms. Spano to the Board and presented Jane with a plague honoring the occasion.

Dr. Green, the current Superintendent, selected the piece from all those selected and shown in Viva City last month. Art work from all the school in the district were exhibited in that show.

Each year a new piece will be selected by the Superintendent and placed in the Permanent Art Collection.
