Students drawn to Yale Art Gallery exhibits

Field trip funded by the Hulley Arts Foundation

Students in an after-school arts program at St. Mary-St. Michael School in Derby, Ct. view a variety of art forms at the Yale Art Gallery in New Haven, Ct.

The program was funded by a generous grant from the Jamie A. Hulley Fund for the Arts, based in Orange, Ct.

Valley Arts Council President Rich DiCarlo and Vice President Steve DiRienzo taught the classes. A total of 27 students participated in the popular program, and school officials hope to offer a similar program next year.

These boys are jotting down notes about what they experienced as they toured the gallery.
