A gallery full of imagination 🎨✨ Students were excited to find their artwork on display at the IMES Art Show. The event celebrated the creativity, talent, and original ideas of every student in the school. One fun highlight was the IMPACT team’s “Laundry Art” display, which transformed Lost & Found items into part of the exhibit and served as a clever reminder to take a second look at items left behind during the school year.
