Conversation Pieces Art Exhibit Features LVJUSD Student Art
On Sunday, October 17, 2021, the "Conversation Pieces" art exhibit unveiled hand-painted banners created by young artists and community members, including many LVJUSD students.
The exhibit, conceived by Livermore artist Thomasin Dewhurst, brought together young artists from throughout the Tri-Valley to collaborate on a series of hand-painted banners. Some of the participating groups included the Pedrozzi Young Scholars, Quest Science Center, JazzLabb/ Element 116, Del Arroyo 4-H Club and Dewhurst's own art students. The Tri-Valley Writers (TVW) Group, a regional branch of the California Writers Club (CWC), was also among the local organizations selected to be involved in the project.
The event opened with a performance by Element 116, a teen jazz ensemble directed by Matt Finders. Thomasin Dewhurst welcomed those in attendance and invited representatives from community groups to address those in attendance, including Mayor Bob Woerner, LVJUSD Board Trustee Kristie Wang, and astronaut Jose M. Hernandez, whose likeness was illustrated on one of the banners.
