Fifth graders go to the UVA Art Museum for Writer's Eye

Fifth graders had the opportunity to have a tour of several pieces of artwork throughout the UVA Art Museum.  The docents told us a little bit about each piece and asked us questions about the art. Students are choosing one piece of artwork that inspires them to write a poem.  All fifth graders will submit their writing by November 9th.


Compositions inspired by selected works on view in the Museum can be submitted
in the categories of Prose or Poetry, for grades 3–5, 6–8, 9–12, and University/Adult.
Entries are judged anonymously by area teachers and writing professionals.

Prizes for the Elementary and Middle School Entries:

Elementary and Middle School
1st place: $50 and a one-year membership to The Fralin Museum of Art
2nd place: $25 bookstore gift certificate
3rd place: a certificate of achievement

Good luck Hollymead Fifth graders!!
