Flat Stanley is a
paper cutout which is made by elementary children around the
world. Each class tries to find many
ways for
their Flat Stanley to have adventures: some go on vacation,
some go to Iraq and some visit grandmother. Annette's Flat Stanley arrived in the mail from Mrs. Cowart's and Mrs. Stratton's 2nd graders at North Columbia Elementary in Appling, GA. Annette and Flat Stanley joined other members of an internet art group in Manhattan to see The Gates and spend two weeks doing things that only artists love to do. He made the trip in a saffron envelope in Annette's big red purse for pictures at famous NYC landmarks. So Annette took pictures and wrote a little story about Flat Stanley's adventures in NYC and especially in the Metropolitan Museum of Art and in Central Park among The Gates. Thanks to Jacoby for sharing his Flat Stanley with us. |

FLAT
STANLEY IN NEW YORK CITY
with
Annette Bush and her artist friends
February
19 - March 5, 2005
Hello boys and girls in Mrs. Cowart's Class, Thank you for selecting Jacoby's Flat Stanley to go on the art trip with me. We had a great time in Central Park seeing art called "The Gates." We also saw art in museums and galleries and on the street! We met lots of people who knew Flat Stanley, including Al Roker who is on TV on The Today Show. Since Flat Stanley had solved a mystery in an art museum, he knew how to behave. But . . . he DID get into trouble in the SNOW and in one art gallery which had a BIG black poodle named Louisa. He had to stay in his big 'saffron' envelope a whole bunch! Do you know what color that is? We took lots of pictures, so maybe you will want to go to New York City someday to see the art. Annette Bush Mrs. Stratton's sister |
