At 5:00pm Friday, July 17, 2015 the doors opened to the annual Chaffee Bradshaw Exhibit.  The Eisenhower Presidential Library, Museum and Boyhood Home hosted this year’s exhibit in the lobby of the library building.

The Chaffee Bradshaw exhibit features the work created by students who participated in this year’s summer Arts Council of Dickinson County arts program.  The children learn several art techniques including painting, and drawing.  This year’s class was instructed by Karen Cooper and Alyshia Anguiano..

The exhibition greeted a large number of art lovers at its opening.  Although the student masterpieces were the main focus, the visitors were also treated to table centerpieces made by the students using dry gourds and paint.  It was an evening of expression and TALENT!!!
