News items, plus a cool video.

So, I have good news, bad news, and a cool video to share today:

1. Bad news first - today I found out that student artwork (part of a display hanging in the school) was VANDALIZED by students!  That makes me so sad and angry all at the same time.  How could someone do that to another's work?  Students put a lot of time and hard work into their art, and I want to share it with everyone in the building... but I can't if this continues... :(

2. Then the good news - I won a Thiems Grant for POTTERY WHEELS for next school year!  I wrote a grant for all three middle schools, and we won!  Each school is getting some wheels to use as part of the 8th grade sculpture classes.  We're also getting a visit from the company who's selling us the wheels.  She's a ceramic artist, too, so she's going to show us all about our new table-top wheels.  Get ready to get MESSY!!! :)

3. And a cool video.  This was made by a college art student as part of a class.  I thought it was neat and wanted to share it with you:
