Staff Appreciation Week May 2-6, 2016
We kicked off our week of superhero festivities with a “Super Fun” photoshoot. The PTSA wanted to celebrate and treat the staff at Thomas Viaduct Middle School in ways that would allow them to share their “Super Powers” and inspire the students to explore the superhero within every individual.
We are so grateful for the inspiration and amazing capes artist Holly Hagen at Creative Capes shared with us.
Your work, quality and creativity is amazing!
Thank you so much from TVMS PTSA and our Staff.
“About the Artist, Holly Hagen
I was raised in a very creative environment from a young age. Having a mom who is a talented fine artist and a dad as an entrepreneur the scene was set in motion for who I have become today. Empowering kids through art has been my life-long passion, so it was only a matter of time before my creative ideas and personal drive lead me to developing Creative Capes in 2010. In addition to online sales I travel with my husband (trusty sidekick) up and down the East coast to exhibit at juried craft shows (see show schedule). It is a wonderful opportunity to interact with families and see the instant transformation when the kids look in the mirror. Their reaction is priceless, warms my heart every time and is the reason I do what I do.”
We held our 2nd Annual Quarter Auction this past weekend. It was a HUGE success thanks to our amazing volunteers, families, staff and community!
