This exhibit showcases the artwork of children of Desert Peach Montessori School, made with natural and upcycled materials, following the lessons of teaching artist Zoe Bray. All the art was made outside, under varying weather conditions, to the children's delight.
Art with Nature places emphasis on the basics of art-making. This means engaging creatively with an ecological and no-waste approach - refuse, reduce, reuse, recycle, in that order of priority. Art with Nature is about making art with nature, creating positively and sustainably with our environment and, by extension, ourselves.
Desert Peach is a member of the Wildflower Network of schools. Wildflower is an ecosystem of decentralized Montessori micro-schools that support children, teachers, and parents. Wildflower aspires to give all children and families the opportunity to choose high-quality, beautiful learning environments as they follow life’s unfolding journey. Desert Peach Montessori School offers equitable access to a nurturing, authentic Montessori environment. We inspire curiosity, emotional intelligence, and a love for learning while fostering independence, peace, and community.
Gallery East, located in McKinley Arts & Culture Center is one of three galleries operated by the City of Reno. To learn more please visit: https://www.reno.gov/community/arts-culture/city-art-galleries
