Art Club celebrated the intersection of community and cultural history by partnering with the Swedish Heritage Center. Led by president Naomi Gahan, students painted individual Dala horses while studying traditional color symbolism and the flowing, floral patterns of Swedish folk art.
These unique works are now centerpieces for the monthly community lunches to provide a personal, artistic touch.





State Track Apparel order forms are due Friday by 8:30!
