Three Lansing Middle School students were recognized for their artistic talents during a special presentation by the Lansing Lions Club on Thursday, November 5.
The students participated in the annual Lions Clubs International Peace Poster Contest, which encourages young people around the world to express their visions of peace through art.
Congratulations to this year's winners!
First Place: Iker Delgado
Second Place: Emma Bradley
Third Place: Emily Lawrence
Lansing Lions Club members Chris Southard and Jeanne Im visited Lansing Middle School to present the awards. Mr. Southard shared that nearly 40 individuals participated in judging the artwork and complimented the students on their creativity, use of color, and designs.
The Peace Poster Contest gives students an opportunity to reflect on the meaning of peace and communicate their ideas through artwork. Winning entries have the opportunity to advance through additional levels of competition, potentially reaching the international level.
During the presentation, Mr. Southard also shared information about the Lions Club's service to the Lansing community, including local projects and scholarships for graduating seniors.
Congratulations to Iker, Emma, and Emily, along with art teacher Emily Bucher, for their work on this year's contest! Thank you to the Lansing Lions Club for continuing to support our students and encourage creativity through this annual tradition.
