🎩✨ 3rd Grade Wax Museum ✨🎩 History came to life at the Redlin Art Center as our incredible 3rd graders hosted their annual Wax Museum! 🕰️📚 Students selected a historical figure to research, wrote a short biography, and dressed up to portray their chosen person. From presidents and pioneers to inventors and activists, the art center was filled with voices from the past. Visitors pressed each student’s "button" to hear fascinating facts and stories brought to life by our young historians. We are so proud of the effort, creativity, and confidence our 3rd graders showed during this memorable event. Great job, everyone! 👏❤️
