Hello! Welcome to the Liberty Artists Webpage!
I am Liberty School's Art Teacher, Mrs. Johnson. This is my 13th year at Liberty School, and I love teaching here. It is a wonderful place to be, as you will see from all of the beautiful artwork you see here! On this website, I will list our current art projects, any art contests, supply lists, our district art brochure, and display examples of student artwork and art exhibits. You will also find links to fun art websites and information about community art resources. Have fun navigating through the website and checking everything out!
If you would like to contact me please e-mail me at the district extension @district135.org, my username is djohnson, or you may call me at Liberty (708) 364-3800.
