Hollywood Hill PTA's Artist in Residence Program

6/6/2019

Hollywood Hill PTA expanded the Art Docent program of their school to include an Artist in Residence program. For 2018-2019, the PTA partnered with Kevin Creekmore, owner of MoltenWorks and President of the Woodinville Arts Alliance, who helped students create some whimsical garden art using fused glass techniques.
The PTA sent a flier home to families that explained the program at the beginning of the year. Then each grade level, with the help of the art docents, brought Kevin in one day this year to create their unique works of art.  After a brief introduction lesson, students gathered in table groups of 3-4 to work collaboratively on the same piece of glass.  Once the kids agreed on a final product, Kevin took it back to his studio and their BIG kilns, and melted the glass until it fused together.  Then they had a metalworker hand-bend the iron stakes for the glass to be placed in, and the PTA installed them all over their campus to add a wonderful dash of color and light.

Kudos to Hollywood Hill PTA for their work on enriching their docent program and for developing a wonderful bridge between school and community as well as between student work in the classroom and the work of a professional artist. It is a wonderful example of how a PTA can leverage community partnerships to help provide amazing experiences for students! #PTAProud

Many thanks to Hollywood Hill PTA President Diana Christensen and their Artist in Residence Chair, Torrey Edwards, for sharing information about their Artist in Residence program with us!
