Art Around Coleytown

Have you ever noticed the incredible artwork at Coleytown?  All around the building we have original pieces of art by Westport artists. These pieces are part of the Westport Public Art Collection, which contains nearly 1,500 pieces on display in Westport's public buildings.  

Each month, on CES TV, Coleytown students will be highlighting different pieces of art in a segment named Art in our School. The first painting that we highlighted was American Heritage, the Stevan Dohanos painting in the main office.

This month two fourth grade students decided to highlight a drawing by Catherine Barr titled Young Bears. They researched this artist and created a video to share on our tv studio. The students also challenged the Coleytown community to create their own drawings in crayon that we can showcase in the building.
