Altharetta Yeargin Art Museum

On September 27th, the class visited the Yeargin Art Museum. This is a special museum because SBISD is the only district in the United States to have their own museum. Altharetta Yeargin was an art teacher in SBISD. She liked to travel and she brought back various pieces of art from the places she visited. She donated several of these pieces to SBISD. The donated items include black pottery by Native American Maria Martinez, quilts, carved tusks, archeological treasures and a painting by Grandma Moses. The museum is located on the Westchester Campus.
