\"Arts<\/a>Division 9 made the short journey to the Burnaby Art Gallery this Wednesday. Thank you parent drivers!! We were there to see 2 exhibits & create some art!<\/span><\/p>\n

On the 1st floor we saw the Arts Alive<\/em>\u00a0<\/strong>exhibit\u00a0which featured the works of talented Burnaby\u00a0students. It\u00a0showcased student paintings, drawings & sculptures depicting a place that holds special memories. We grabbed a clipboard & became gallery detectives & went on a Gallery Search to find key images in the works of art. We found a Pharaoh, fireworks, nighttime, & even a watermelon!
