Student artwork goes on display after shutdown
Arts Place is extending its Regional Student Art Exhibit through Friday, June 26.
The exhibit features art from students throughout the area.
It was originally meant to be displayed March 20 through April 19, but the coronavirus pandemic made that impossible. A digital tour was posted on artsland.org and is still available online.
Student artists, their families and community members may view the exhibit at Arts Place beginning Monday during regular hours.
The exhibit is free. Masks are required to be worn by visitors and social distancing should be observed. If a person does not have a mask, one will be provided, Arts Place personnel said.
Virtual KiPS
Jay County Public Library will be offering a virtual kindergarten preparedness school (KiPS) this summer as a way of working around the COVID-19 pandemic.
From June 16 through July 21, there will be interactive instructional videos posted each Tuesday at 10 a.m. on the library’s Facebook page.
Virtual KiPS ill include six weeks of activities, stories and skill development to help prepare children for kindergarten.
To register a child for the no-cost program, visit the library’s website — jaycpl.lib.in.us — or the library’s Facebook page or stop by the library at 315 N. Ship St., Portland.
The program is aimed at children age 4 to entering kindergarten for the next school year.
Parents should stop by the library to pick up a KiPS bag, which includes worksheets, crafts and school supplies that are coordinated with the videos.
