Preschool Picassos to Land Art Gallery Opening

The LSU Early Childhood Education Laboratory Preschool (LSU ECELP) students will join the ranks of celebrated regional, American, and European artists as they showcase their artwork in a gallery opening at the LSU Museum of Art on Thursday, May 17, from 4:30 to 7:00 p.m.

The LSU ECELP is aligned with the LSU School of Education’s Early Childhood Education program and as the flagship university for the state, serves as a model for instruction, research, and developmentally appropriate learning strategies. The LSU ECELP is also committed to the Reggio Emilia-style of learning. At its core, this child-led philosophy encourages children to discover the world around them led by their interests, encouraging investigation, communication, and collaboration. This gallery opening demonstrates the students’ creativity and represents their self-guided exploration of art.

The LSU ECELP currently serves 175 children each day ages 6 weeks to 5 years and is located on LSU’s main campus in Baton Rouge, LA.
