Ridgewood NJ, Deeply Rooted; Ridgewood’s Little Plant Shop window WON! It was a fun Oktoberfest weekend, despite a day of rain. In case you didn’t know- AP Art students from RHS were paired with participating businesses, and a 4th grade student who signed up for a special art program. Together, they designed and executed amazing window art for the Halloween holiday. Deeply Rooted was done by my former student Emma P!!! Here she is with her RHS Art teacher, Ms. Maxwell, also a former RHS student! “Feed me, Seymour….” Congratulations! (posted with parental permission).
