Our annual BHS art show, Kaffee Klatch, will be held in the BHS Auxiliary Gym on May 14 from 5:30-8pm. Artworks from all BHS students, as well as the pieces from State Art will be on display for the community to come and see. There will be potted plants for sale as a collaboration of our Art Club and FFA groups — plants grown by our FFA students, and planters made in our art rooms. We will have buttons for sale designed by our Art Club students as well. All money from sales go back into our Art Club to be used for supplies, our annual Raku field trip — and other art related activities.
