Corriher-Lipe Middle School Students Featured at Waterworks Visual Art Center “Jessica Flores Wins Top Award!” Thirty-two art students from Corriher-Lipe Middle School travelled to the Waterworks Visual Art Center in October to attend a reception in their honor and view an exhibit of their art created for the recent “La Fiesta de Rowan.” The students created posters based on the theme “Music is Our Passion” after exploring the influence of Cuban and African rhythms on music in America starting in the 1930’s. With their choice of music as an inspiration, students created a visual interpretation of what they heard. Fifty-one posters were submitted and judged by members of the Human Relations Council and the Latino Coalition. Corriher-Lipe students were pleased to hear that their art won first place at all three grade levels: Grade 6- Mary Taylor Grade 7- Sarah Loder Grade 8- Jessica Flores Awards were presented at the reception and “The People’s Choice Award” was announced. Congratulations to Jessica Flores for winning the amazing award!! While at Waterworks, students toured the current exhibits with their art teacher, Mrs. Lynn Haynes. The winners!
