Artwork featured here, at “Bee Kind,” the Trinity Area School District’s district-wide art show, is part of a community partnership with Dr. Kristen Romesburg and Claysville Family Practice. Students spent the year creating artwork that demonstrates the idea of inclusion and growth, while respecting everyone’s differences as individuals. Artwork featured here, along with other pieces on display at the show, will be installed permanently at Claysville Family Practice offices.

Artwork on display at the Trinity Area School District's district-wide art show was created by students in grades kindergarten through 12.

For the painting "Be Yourself," students in different grades from several Trinity Area School District schools traced their hands and forearm and added patterns, details, and color. The hands were added to the large canvas that was stretched and built by National Art Honor Society students. The intent of the piece is "to remind us we are unique and individual and to let our light shine in the world."
After a three-year hiatus, Trinity Area School District’s districtwide art show returned to Trinity High School, bigger and better than ever.
Student art featuring work of students from kindergarten through 12th grade was on display Friday and Saturday.
The pieces on display included a variety of media, including drawings, paintings, ceramics, photography, and stop motion film. The show also included a teachers’ exhibit featuring works by faculty members.
Throughout the interactive art show, art teachers and high school art students led pottery, jewelry-making and screen printing sessions in the high school art studios. Face painting also was available.
“It’s extremely exciting. The kids worked hard all year round, and it’s great to display their work,” said Lauren Kirkpatrick, art teacher at Trinity North and Trinity West elementary schools. “We’re excited about getting the community involved, and to host a show where the community gets an opportunity to see what talented artists we have in the Trinity Area School District.”
Also during the art show, the school district sold salsa to raise funds for aid to Ukraine.
