Forest Avenue Elementary School is proud to have a display of first and fourth grade artwork currently in the West Babylon Public Library. The artwork is displayed in the children’s area in February as part of a collaboration between the West Babylon Art Department and the West Babylon Public Library to help promote the arts in the schools and in the community. 

Under the direction of art teacher Janice Dougherty, first grade students worked diligently to create artwork to proudly be displayed. Students created line design owls using their cutting and painting skills for mixed media artwork.

Mrs. DiStefano’s fourth grade art classes created metallic snowflakes using a color scheme developed with tissue paper and metallic lines. Additionally, fourth grade students created Jim Dine paint palettes while learning about the elements of line, value and color to develop their artwork in a similar style to artist Jim Dine.
