Reinstein said the pieces are selected by the individual art teachers. Elementary art teachers try to rotate the selections so at some time, all students are all in the show, she said. Many have group projects and in some cases grade-level murals, she added.

“Due to size limitations of the gym it is impossible for everyone to be part of the show every year,” Reinstein noted.
