WABI highlights artwork to be exhibited at UMMA

Pieces of art by students — from preschoolers to high school seniors from about 40 area schools — now on exhibit at the Bangor Mall will be displayed at the University of Maine Museum of Art in Bangor in April. “It’s definitely an opportunity that many students would not have to have their artwork publicly viewed, especially if they’re in a smaller town where there aren’t as many spaces to have their artwork viewed. So it’s really cool to have this opportunity,” says Sue Shapiro, an art teacher in RSU 87, told WABI ( Channel 5).
