The Walnut Square PTO will be hosting an Art Show and Restaurant Night on Monday, April 14th. The Art Show will take place downtown at 43 Washington Street (adjacent to the Wingate St. parking lot across from Wang’s Table) from 5:30pm to 7pm. The show will showcase artwork from our PTO/Title 1 Art Night. If you were unable to attend the art night and would still like to have your child’s artwork displayed at the artshow, attached are directions to create your own masterpiece at home. Art completed at home must be turned in to school no later than Wednesday, April 9th to be included in the Art Show.
We will also be hosting a Restaurant Fundraiser at Casa Blanca (right down the street from the artshow!) the same evening where 20% of all food purchases will be donated to the PTO. Please remember that you must mention the fundraiser when ordering!
