Clubs & Organizations

Art Club centers around not just kids in Art class, but those with an interest in art or a friend in the club who wants to partake in the activities, as well. A few things we do: face painting at events, murals, props and designs for organizations, art make-&-takes, Art Club parties, a field trip, and more! 

What we're looking for is a willingness to participate at events (if you can't paint, we teach you!), the ability to put your best face forward and represent us and PHS well, and a $5 fee to join.

Sponsors: Ms. Cassie Vining & Mr. Nicholas Palermo
