SHS Students shine in Art/History project
Emotionally impactful exhibit provides a learning experience
•April 23, 2025•
High school students from Patricia King, Lori Kirk, and Lisa Bertetto’s classes recently completed a collaborative project inspired by a Moultrie County History Center workshop held last fall.
The student-created artwork is currently on display at the History Center.
King developed the project after attending a history-to-Go presentation about the Education Liaison’s World War II and Depression Era tub that was conducted by Becky Lawson and Connie Dunscomb. She was inspired to teach her students about the Nazi bombing of the city of Guernica by a photo that she saw in a LIFE magazine that was in the tub, the bombing, part of the Spanish Civil War and carried by the Condor Legion and the Italiana “Aviazione Legionaria,” was done through an agreement between Adolf Hitler and Francisco Franco.
