Paso Robles Joint Unified School District held its latest gallery reception at Studios on the Park last week. The newest exhibit features work from Flamson Middle School and Lewis Middle School.
Pictured above are some middle school artists whose works are featured. They also have artwork from their advanced art high school students and high school artists in residence. So far this school year, students have earned $1800 selling their pieces at the gallery.
