Art Workshop
Brightens School
Activities Here
On last Friday evening, Mrs.
Kay Mizar, on professional leave
from the Anchorage Public
Schools for the purpose of aiding
the art program being sponsored
by the Nome School, conducted
her last workshop here.
Working on a very full sched
ule during her two days in Nome,
Mrs. Mizar gave demonstrations
to the public on both Thursday
and Friday evenings, after spend
ing the day instructing students
in the classroom. Leaving Nome
on Saturday, she proceeded to
Fairbanks.
The workshops in the classroom
were expedited by combining
some of the rooms, a procedure
by which many more students
were able to benefit. In Mrs.
Potter’s room the children made
balloon mobiles; Miss Erickson’s
and Mr. Woodiel’s rooms com
bined, to do charcoal sketches;
Mrs. Coons’ class sketched
with chalk, and Mrs. Witner’s
and Mr. Denny’s classes com
bined to paint with water-colors.
Many mothers and other mem
bers of the community assisted in
school during Mrs. Mizar’s yvisit.
These includes the Mesdames
Bayer, Towner, Conklin, Hardy,
Dunlap, Bachelder, Tiffany, Mc
Iver, Tungwenuk,' Tobuk, Elmer
Greene, Hungerford, Kealiher,
Baldwin, Dimmit, Fondell, Em
mons, . Kowalczyk, Sundstrom,
•Maakestad, Woodcock, Amund
sen, O’Connor, Young, Ullrich
and Gilbert.
The genuine interest and coop
eration displayed by the commu
nity indicate promise for a sim
ilar workshop next year. Teacher
comment would suggest that the
fresh approach, the ideas, and the
general help given by the art con
sultant are well worth the ex
penditure of time and effort, and
appreciation of Mrs. Mizar’s gen
erosity, with her time and know
ledge, has been paramount. As a
token of the general feeling, the
Nome faculty presented a gift of
several ivory carvings to Mrs.
Mizar, and also samples of the
fur obtainable in this area.
This week, a display will be
shown in the Polet Store win
dows, of the many and diversi
fied types of handiwork demon
strated by Mrs. Kay Mizar during
the art workshops.
