Love, Happiness, Hope

Found Art is creating an artwork and leaving it  somewhere for someone to find. It is a great way to spread joy and goodwill in your community and  connect with others. This is occurring all over the world and its mission is to make the world a better place right now by empowering people across the globe to share on a personal level. Art has the power to communicate. All people are creative and the expression of their creativity opens the heart of both the creator and the receiver. Goodwill is contagious.

Please email us at JDATA@ebnet.org with your thoughts about found art, and how you felt when you found it.

Thank you for taking interst in this project. With out you our work would not be found!

Responses from our Finders:

Hey!
Well, it just so happened that I found a piece of artwork. I got number 83. I also read why this is being done and completely agree. I think people do express themselves very much so through art, and I really like the whole idea of "Found Art". Great work to all the artist!!

Sincerely,

Dear Mrs. Data and all Art Classes,
I found art piece #22 in Room 108.  I was so excited to be a recipient.  I too believe that sharing the ideas of love, hearts, and beauty will bring more much- needed harmony to this world.  It is obvious that this particular artist spent a lot of time completing the piece and cared very much about both its visual appeal and its beautiful message.  I feel honored.  

Thank you, Mrs. Nancy Davidson

 

I found it, I found it.  How exciting to find a smiley face in my teacher bag and during the class that is my hardest of the day.  It did make me smile and think about the book, Warm Fuzzy's and Cold Prickles.  I have to find the book and share the story with you; it goes along perfectly with what you are doing.  
Thank you and your student for bringing a smile to my face.  
Have a great weekend.

What a nice surprise... I found a beautiful cut out of people holding hands with the quote "True sincere optimistic love takes lifetimes". I shared it with my students. Please tell your wonderful artists what a bright spot they made in our rainy dreary day!

Finding your art made me happy. Keep doing stuff like Love, Happiness, and Hope are a part of what I am doing and so are you.

I was fortunate enough to find an absolutely beautiful collage of red items, and some of my favorite I might add. There was a red heart, red strawberries, and a red apple! I was quite curious to find it in my lunch box; how appropriate!

After reading what Found Art is all about, it really made me smile. What a beautiful concept! Thank you, whoever put it there (Number 50)! I'm honored! Mrs. Demko


Yay! I found one!  While going to my locker on my way to Verbal with Mrs. Manetta, I saw something stuck on one of the lockers.  I was in a rush because I was later than usual.  I thought that it was just a messy locker and knew it wasn't mine.  Then I checked again, and it was my locker!  I got excited.  I immediately opened my locker and pulled it out.  When I saw it, number 203, it made me smile and brightened my day! When I showed it to my friends, it made them smile because it was from a secret admirer.  This is one great way to spread smiles around!
