"Our amazing young artists set the tone by creating a feeling of joy in students first thing in the morning."
Press release from Islip School District:
October 9, 2020
In a special “Chalk Talk” art lesson with teacher Bethany Majestic, students at Islip’s Commack Road Elementary School recently studied Julian Beever, a British sidewalk chalk artist who has been creating trompe-l’oeil chalk drawings on pavement surfaces since the mid-1990s. The students then created their own outdoor chalk masterpieces to beautify the school grounds and get their fellow students excited to start their day when they get off the bus.
