Art Club makes Tote Bags from Old Tees!

This summer I attended Texas Public Radio's Art of Recycling event where Spare Parts  was teaching the public how to re-purpose old tees. I loved this project so much that I decided it would be the perfect recycling project to kick off the first Art Club meeting of the 2015-2016 school year!  

Art club spent the afternoon making cute tote bags from old tees that would have been otherwise discarded and we had a blast! I was excited to have a full classroom of over 26 students that filled the room with chatter, laughter, and best of all recycling!

Fiesta Wreaths

Last semester the JMS Art Club created five Fiesta Wreaths out of what would be considered "Fiesta Trash" with Mary Cantu of Spare Parts. The kids had a blast digging through all the materials and constructed some really creative designs that are on exhibit at The Carver Community Cultural Center in San Antonio, TX. Other creative contributors of this exhibit were Eric Cavazos, Longfellow Middle School, Maker Mama, Marshall High School, and RVK Architects.

If you have not had a chance to see the 18 Fiesta Wreaths on Exhibit, you still have time.  The exhibition closes on May 1.
