The Colors Of Spring

Spring brings a burst of bountiful colors. The most exuberant of these colors can be found at an elementary school's Spring Musical Program.

The Colors Of Spring

A production of Bugz by John Jacobson and John Higgins was performed by first graders in costumes as bees, lady bugs, ants and one stink bug!
There is a great variety of color, pattern and texture bursting from the stage. Spring at its very best.

The same students were also the set designers. They created the butterflies and dragonflies in the background. It was an amazing use of color and pattern. Stunning Beautiful Wonderful
The patterns created on the butterflies are brilliant bursts of color.

The look of paisley was painted on more than one happy butterfly.
Spring is here.
