5th grade ARTWORKS at GOCC will be held on March 15. Riverside will be represented by 33 students.

March 24 Riverside will be represented in an Art Promotion at all Barnes and Nobles. We will be located in the Portage store. A % of all sales at Barnes and Nobles on this day will be given to the arts. I don't have final details yet. Will update when I know.

Riverside will be putting work in with Andrews in Three Rivers at area Wendy's stores (Three Rivers) this spring. This store is designated for Three Rivers but Judson Stemaly of Andrews has offered to allow us to join his students.

Of course, don't forget about the Constantine Art Festival. Student and adult work accepted. Look ahead and plan on joining us on June 9 and 10th at the Art Center and downtown.
