Last week we got to go to an art show. It was put on by the Hudsonville School District and included pieces by kids from kindergarten to 12th grade. This is a large district and includes several elementary schools, several middle schools and the high school. The art teachers select art pieces to be put in it, and one of the artists was our Ruby!
They gather the pieces and put them on display in the town hall. They assign different days for the schools, so the kids can invite people to see their work. It's always a fun thing to go to.

An acrylic painting by a 10th grader
And here's our Ruby! She's in 3rd grade and painted this stained glass window.
We had fun and Ruby was proud to have her piece of art shown. It's pretty incredible to see what some of these kids do. As we walked out, Laura said something about feeling like her talent is at kindergarten level after being there. I'm thankful God gives all of us different talents, but I do wish I had just a little ability to draw!

Go Ruby! What fun to see all this art the kids created. The leapfrog was too cute. Really a fun show and I love that art is getting attention. Love that! Cheers, lvy
I have always enjoyed children’s art! When looking at the next grade up for my sons, on back to school night I would visit the possible teachers and the art they had in their rooms, always swayed me in requesting them for the next school year.
You tell Rudy she did a great job! I sure couldn’t do a stained glass portrait like she did. She obviously deserved to be there!
Many talented young people!
I love going to kid's art shows. Ruby's window is beautiful. So symmetrical, with lovely colors and design. She should be very proud of it. Some of these look like they were done by adult artists! The possum, acrylic face and snails. And how inventive to make a frog tic-tac-toe! It's so cute.
The snail ink drawing is so fabulous
Amazing talent from these kids! Congratulations to Ruby!
I love things like this. A few years ago I enjoyed going to one in Sammy's school district. I think he had entered three things. Bianca is very artistic and does amazing drawings.
Oh my goodness, every art piece is so amazing. Congratulations Ruby you did a beautiful job on yours.
So beautiful.
Great job Ruby! ;) Her painting was beautiful! Of course, stained glass is my favorite. 😊
Boy there are some very talented young people there. I'm with you...I wish I had more creative abilities. But I guess we all have our gifts to give. Lol I think mine is enjoying food. 😂
It is beautiful and Ruby’s stained glass so nice ! Congratulations to her.
Congratulations to Ruby!! I love her painting and that smile!! The student gallery at the museum where I worked was my favorite! The kids have great talent and have no fear of expressing themselves. Thanks for sharing this with us!
WOW such talented students. These pieces are amazing and Ruby's stained glass is great as well. Kudos to all. Janice
Of course Ruby wins in my heart, no matter what she does. Her painting is very beautiful, though! Amazing talent. Henrik's piece is darling too, and I guess if I were buying one? It would be the possum. I have a weakness for possums, hahaha xoxo
How absolutely wonderful! And the joy on her sweet face is priceless.
I love Children's art they have none of the self-doubt that adults grow into.

That is so wonderful that this is done. Ruby did a great job on the stained glass window.
Wow! Some very talented kids.
That's so awesome that you're close enough to attend Ruby's school activities. My mom used to come and I know it meant the world to my girls. Kids are so talented, aren't they? I always marvel and what they create!
Oh wow, what incredible talent! I know you all look forward to going to that each year! Ruby's stained glass window is just beautiful, and little Hendrik's piece reminds me of the children's book The Snowy Day by Ezra Jack Keates! I'm so glad you took so many pictures! I feel like I got to visit the art show, too!
So nice to see all of this art and Ruby did a fantastic job on the stained glass window :)
All the best Jan
