Romare Bearden Artwork

During Black History Month the 3rd Grade class spent a couple weeks learning about Romare Bearden, a famous African American Artist. Bearden is known for making collages out of books, magazines and newspapers, and most of his artwork had musical themes. Students worked hard to create their own collages, and each collage has a musical theme. When we finished our artwork, we took time to write letters to Romare Bearden, imagining what we would like to ask him about his life, love of music, etc. I'm proud of my 3rd Grade artists!

I think I would like to know if Bearden listened to Hip Hop or Country too...
