rt Department ofthe E-wing Q Q Q Becky Frisco and Marti Thompson hang posters made by Art ll and Applied Arts classes to enter in the United Nations Peace Poster Contest. Posters received from other countries were also displayed at Buchser. An eye tor beauty and hands and a mind to recapture it are of prime im- portance to -the artist. The ability to take notice ot the picturesque and the desire to express emotion are equally essential. Young talent is constantly being discov- ered and encouraged by the Art Depart- ment at Buchser. New techniques are presented to the art student which he may like to explore as a hobby or develop as a career. Whatever use he may make of it, the appreciation and awareness of natural beauty acquired from an art course will help to tultill his life.
