61st annual primary school art exhibition launched
A vibrant collection of artwork from primary school students across the island is featured at an annual exhibition at the Bermuda Society of Arts.
The 61st Annual Primary School Art Exhibition runs until April 11 and residents were encouraged to visit the gallery and cast their vote for the People’s Choice Award.
Crystal Caesar, the Minister of Education, joined students and educators at the launch of the exhibition, which is being held under the theme “One World, Many Stories”.
Ms Caesar presented visual art teachers with certificates of appreciation and membership cards for the society to honour their dedication to fostering youth creativity.
Ms Caesar said: “Art uniquely brings people together. The arts let our children express themselves, our cultures, and our shared humanity.
“Throughout this exhibit, you will see unique perspectives and stories stemming from the imaginations of our very talented young artists.
“This is what we want for our students. Art is more than just a part of a curriculum; it is vital to a child’s education, fostering self-expression, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills.”
