Diggs Johnson Middle School Urban Art Exhibit

Students have been asked to create a piece of art based on Keith Haring's style that expresses an urban scene. The use of contours and iconic shapes with very simple basic colors is typical of Keith Haring's work.

The exhibit will run from January 9, 2009 - January 23, 2009.
