Baby Clothes Designer Visits Students at Pelham Middle School

Pelham Middle School and Pelham Memorial High School graduate Marlie Pappas visited the Pelham Middle School eighth grade studio in art class on March 22 to talk about her journey as an artist and her career in the fashion industry.  

After taking many art courses at PMHS, including AP Studio Art and several computer graphics courses, Marlie went to the Fashion Institute of Technology, where she  focused on advertising and toy design. She currently works as a baby clothing designer at Bon Bebe in New York City.

The artistically talented students of the 8^th grade studio in art class were inspired to learn about her career and see her impressive designs.
