If you could create your own world, what would it be like? Lake Erie Ink students recently answered that question with paint, collages, and words. Their creations are currently hanging in the gallery space at Heights Library’s Lee Road branch, where they will remain until the end of February. Stop by to have a look, or check out the images below to see some of the display!
Thank you to the students at Noble Elementary School, Fairfax Elementary School, Near West Intergenerational School, and Monticello Middle School for contributing their time and talents to Creating New Worlds!
The gallery is located at 2340 Lee Rd.
