Gift of Art PS2021 Slide Show

The Rhode Island Alliance, in partnership with The University of Rhode Island, exhibits state-wide student art (from grades K through 12) at the URI Providence campus, annually each May. The alliance also selects a District for the Gift of Art to the State of Rhode Island that is exhibited with this Public School show.  Johnston was honored in 2014.

Seven of Murphy's students exhibited their work in this professional gallery setting. The exhibition is now available on YouTube, with Murphy's students beginning 12 minutes and 17 seconds into the video.

Student works are presented in the following order:

  1. Jennifer Hutchings
  2. Grace Thomas
  3. Avah DeOliveira 
  4. Shannon Hartley 
  5. Edgar Pacheco-Ortiz
  6. Kyle Iannuccillo

Congratulations to these student artists!  You make us Johnston Proud!
