Jenni Chilton Dodson, art instructor for Homeschool Art Adventures, hosted a plein air event April 22 for her students to celebrate Earth Day. Plein air, French for “open air,” refers to the practice of creating art outdoors, inspired by natural surroundings. Students came with blankets and camping chairs, setting up their own drawing stations across the scenic grounds of the Harlin Museum of West Plains. The youths, including Daydrien Estes, 9, of Pottersville, sketched various elements from around the museum, including spring blooms planted by the Grandmother's Garden Club of West Plains. Summer Arts & Crafts classes will be held every other Monday at the Harlin Museum 405 Worcester St. Open to students of all ages, sessions are expected to follow the same format as the school-year program, with students divided into four age groups ranging from 4 to 18 years old. For more information, text Dodson at 573-604-2577.
