Charles Memorial Hospital recently honored students who participated in the
Young at Art Program in February. The program, which spotlights artwork
from a different local elementary school each month, was designed to make a
positive impact on hospital patients, employees, and the young artists
themselves.
February's
display featured artwork by students from St. John Elementary. A
panel of Memorial volunteers recognized fifth graders Valerie Leviner and
Karli Sonnier and fourth grader Keyana Davis with a $50 savings
bond.
"We
would like to congratulate our young artists, and extend our thanks to them all
for helping to brighten our hospital with their wonderful artwork," said Kathy
DeRouen, Memorial's senior vice president of Marketing and founder of the Young
at Art program.
