    One wall will be allocated for a special Fauquier County Public School Student/Teacher Art Show. Art teachers educate in many ways, one of the most enduring being the act of modeling what it means to live as a professional artist. In preparation for this exhibition, each teacher reflected carefully on their students’ work and selected a single piece to share. That choice offers one student the rare honor of exhibiting beside their art teacher, united in a professional artistic space.
