The 39 artists ranged in age from one to four years old and used a variety of techniques, including marble painting, collage, brush painting, melted-crayon designs and hand-prints.

“The show is a culmination of a couple of weeks spent with the kids doing a variety of creative art activities here at school,” Day Care Center manager Denise Gill said. “The show serves as a great way for our families to meet and fellowship with one another at the beginning of a new school year. The art activities encourage the kids’ creativity and the show provides them with a great sense of accomplishment and development of self-confidence. Besides, it’s just plain fun!”
