@avivaloca I would have loved to help coordinate something with them for this. Such a meaningful connection for @hwdsb to hopefully be a part of. All our secondary schools have Arts heads & there are still a few middle school art teachers šŸ˜‰happy to be involved at the school level.

Absolutely shocked & saddened by the sudden passing of @BorisBrott A Canadian treasure & his creative, visionary, & musical talent made all Hamiltonians proud. Such a pleasure to work with him on many special projects to support @HWDSB students & staff. He will be greatly missed

@moedoetx It depends on how permanent you want it to be and whether you are doing the gluing or students are and their ages. Hot glue, gorilla glue, or 2 part epoxy all work well! I hope that helps šŸ˜Š

Creativity forms a crucial part of the diverse range of human expression.Appreciating art made by children opens our minds to better understanding & respect for all art, all children,& all artists.Childrenā€™s art has its own distinct value & needs nurturing
