JCHS Advanced Art students in Ms. Mitchell's class were prompted to create "Out of character monsters." Each student selected their own ghoul and designed a scene with the monster in an atypical role. Painted on metal trays, they are displayed in a gothic Victorian gallery. Check out this funny group of misfits! “Monsters are People Too”
