The 2023 Waitsburg High School Art Show was held on March 29 and March 30, 2023, and was conceived by Blake French as one of his ASB Leadership class projects. All WHS students were encouraged to share their art in whatever form they wished. Fifteen students entered the art show, plus many of Mrs. Groom’s students displayed their Neurographic Watercolor paintings and their paper collages. Mrs. Susan DeRuwe, retired Prescott School District art teacher, spent two days with Mrs. Groom’s morning classes teaching the students the two forms of art.
