Art Club Happenings: Operation Christmas Cards

In our most recent Art Club, we used recycled materials such as shiny wrapping paper, wallpaper, and scrap paper to create Christmas cards for the troops serving overseas and stationed in the states! We wanted to spread some hope, love, appreciation, and Christmas cheer to the men and women who are serving our country! Our cards will be sent to those deployed during the holidays to help boost their morale and spirit!

Operation Christmas Cards is a fantastic organization that sends cards to US soldiers who are currently deployed. Miss M will be sending the art club cards to their head quarters in Massachusetts  where they will send the cards out overseas. This year, they are hoping to send over 175,000 cards to our troops! The Art Club created over 60 beautiful, homemade cards!

Here are some examples of student made cards and envelopes (grades 4-8):
