The exhibit features artwork from lower, middle, and high school students at Chartwell School is Seaside.

Art instructors Emily Garber, and Domenique Grillo, curated the exhibition that demonstrated the different ways in which their students see the world, and the ways it enhances their creativity.

“Our students see the world differently—and that difference fuels their creativity, innovation, and brilliance. When we focus on their strengths, especially through the lens of art and expression, we witness the extraordinary. This is the power of strength-based education: it doesn’t just support students—it empowers them to lead, create, and inspire," said Danielle Patterson, Head of School, Chartwell School.

The gallery has the goal of inspiring those who pass through the terminal to get to understand the value on recognizing unique creative styles and voices.

Passersby can enjoy the exhibit through June.
