Our meeting times this month will be Wednesday November 7th, Tuesday November 13th, and Wednesday November 14th. However, based on the number of participants, additional days may be added.
The 4th grade activity will be Self Portrait Collages. Students will have the opportunity to work with paints, glue, photographs, paste, recyclable materials, and various art tools. Students that would like to participate will need to pay a $5.00 lab fee and bring in a photograph of him/her. The lab fee will cover the costs of materials students will be using during the Art Club activity. The photograph will be photocopied for their project and returned.

Bonus Mystery Artist Clue!

The tallest building our Mystery Artist ever constructed was H.C Price Tower in Bartlesville Oklahoma (1952-1956).
H.C. Price Tower is a 19-story building which now houses a museum and a
hotel. Standing out like a tall tree in eastern Oklahoma's rolling hills, the
building could also be described as treelike in design, with a "taproot"
supporting a central "trunk" and the floors extending outward like branches.

October's Mystery Artist Clues

Mystery Artist Clues

1. Born 1867 in Richland, Wisconsin, this artist was considered on of America's most famous architects.
2. His mother, a school teacher, surrounded his crib with drawings of cathedrals and gave him a set of wooden building blocks
in hopes he would become a great architect.
3. His employer (boss) and friend, Louis Sullivan, loaned this architect the money to build his first house in Oak Park, IL. at the
age of 22.
4. His style of architecture became known as the Prairie style. Prairie style architecture reflected the color, land, and nature of
the Midwest.
