Bisa Butler Visited Our School

We had a very special guest today at Cleveland. Mrs. Bisa Butler is a famous artist who uses textured fabrics and fibers to create quilts and portraits.  Our art teacher, Mrs. Chavarria, honored Mrs. Butler during Black History Month.  Some of her art students studied Mrs. Butler’s life and designed art pieces using her technique.  Mrs. Butler was very impressed with their work and took pictures of them.  She spoke to the students about her education and career as an artist and answered questions that the students had.   Mrs. Butler and Dr. Cummins both graduated from Howard University.

It was really a pleasure and an honor meeting Mrs. Bisa Butler.
