He plans to have all of the major color groups represented at the plant sale.

Proceeds from the sale will benefit the club’s Civic Beautification and Scholarship funds.

Amber Villanella, a Choconut Valley Elementary School sixth grader, is one of eight elementary students from Lathrop Street Elementary and Choconut Valley Elementary School presenting their artwork to the Hill Country Artists at their May meeting. Lori Keihl, Lathrop Street Elementary art teacher, and Choconut Valley Elementary art teacher Shannon Maynard applaud the Hill Country Artists for their support of these young artists. The participating students are chosen by these two teachers based on their artistic interest and talent and their ability to promote the arts.

Join the artists and the art students 7 p.m., May 3, at the Claverack building, Route 706 East, Montrose, to celebrate these young artists. All HCA meetings are open to the public.
