The Studio by Bouge de lá dance at ArtSpring, Salt Spring’s theatre for the performing arts. Following their show the night before, the company put on this special performance yesterday for elementary students.

The dance performance…

…inspired an art enrichment program where elementary students had the opportunity to explore and create works in response to artists like Andy Warhol, Jackson Pollock, Paul Klee, Miro, etc. The student’s work is now on exhibit in the Art Spring galleries until Wednesday afternoon (3 pm) March 6th. Then selected works will be on exhibit for the rest of the month at the Island Savings Credit Union (the main sponsor of the program.) — Tracy Harrison on the Salt Spring Exchange
