Lucas art teachers Suzanne McNiel and Cerina Wade are seeking volunteers to help sew pillows for their Artist-In-Residence project, as well as volunteers to hang pictures for the upcoming Art Show.
For the sixth-grade Artist-in-Residence project, we will need three volunteers to sew pillows on three sides during the week of April 19.
Suggested schedule for volunteers doing sewing:
McNiel's 6th grade class on Tues. April 19 - volunteer gets a class of pillows (approx. 24), sews up three sides on each pillow. Return the pillows to Lucas by Monday, April 25 for the class to stuff them. Then on April 26 the pillows go back to the volunteer to sew the last seam keeping the stuffing in. Pillows returned by Monday, May 2.
Wade's 6th grade class on Thurs. April 21 - two volunteers get pillows (approx. 18 for each). Sew three sides and return to Lucas by April 26. Students stuff pillows, and pillows are picked up by volunteers on May 5. Since the Art Show is May 10, we would like those pillows by May 10.
For the Art Show coming up on May 10, we need volunteers to hang student artwork on the walls of the Multi-Purpose Room during school hours (up to 5 p.m.) between Tuesday, May 3 and Monday, May 9.
Each class has an art piece going up from all students. It takes a minimum of an hour, or more, per class to get the masking tape on the artwork and the work up on the walls. Walls will be sectioned into areas for each class and some pieces need to go up high enough that a ladder will be needed; this is available in the school. If a person can do a 2-hour stint it is more efficient.
Please contact Heather Roth, PTO volunteer coordinator, at hadroth@gmail.com or 319-321-8155 if you are interested in helping our art teachers with these projects.
