CLINTON TOWNSHIP, MI — L’Anse Creuse High School senior Julia Bolton recently received second place out of all 12th grade pieces for her painting entitled “Bound” at the 36th Annual Macomb Secondary Student Art Show. On March 11, special awards were given out at the opening ceremony of the show at the Anton Art Center.

L’Anse Creuse High School and L’Anse Creuse High School – North had artwork juried into the show. All of the artwork is currently on display inside the Anton Art Center now through April 8th. Gallery hours are Tuesday through Saturday, 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. The art center is located at 125 Macomb Place.

Here’s a look at what else is happening in the L’Anse Creuse School District:

Grease: L’Anse Creuse High School Choirs is presenting Grease on Friday, March 24 and Saturday, March 25 at 7:00 p.m. at the John Armstrong Performing Arts Center (JAPAC).

Grease is a story of growing up and falling in love, with some of the most recognizable characters and music in pop culture history. The school version of the musical is shorter and more suitable in content and language for teens and preteens, without sacrificing the lively fun and sing-along songs that made the original a hit.

Tickets to the show will cost $8 for students and $10 for adults. Tickets may be purchased by visiting the box office, open Monday through Friday 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., or calling (586) 783-6520. The John Armstrong Performing Arts Center is located at 24600 F.V. Pankow Blvd. For more information, please contact L’Anse Creuse High School Choir Director Aaron Kabobel at kabobaa@lc-ps.org.

Silver Medal: L’Anse Creuse High School senior Sarah Burke was awarded a Silver Medal in the 2017 National Scholastic Art and Writing Competition for her photograph entitled “Mirror to the Sole.”

She was one of nine L’Anse Creuse High School and L’Anse Creuse High School – North students to receive Gold Key awards in the Regional Scholastic Competition in January; these works then moved on for consideration at the national level. All National Medalists will be honored at a National Ceremony at Carnegie Hall on June 8, 2017. For more information, contact L’Anse Creuse High School art teacher Janet Prange at prangje@lc-ps.org.
