"Many of our students stu-dents have received awards at the All State High School Art show held every year at the Springville Museum of Art. Many have also won county and state awards," said Reeder. After seven years of internships, in-ternships, Reeder said that too many students wanted to be interns at the same time. So she took a new direction and started a new class for advanced students called the Accelerated Class. This class began in June of last year and has been full ever since. "Our objective was to expand each student's talents through exposure to new mediums and a more demanding de-manding curriculum," said Reeder. The class met once a week for six to nine hours during the summer and cut back to ' - . - These young artists are busy working are always packed with eager artists, with Kaeley Fawcett, a helper; Darcy Art Thursday, Jan. 13, from 4 to 9 p.m. Furniture 03 i :.rivy ; cc 3 C s O. - ; u. 3 23575R15AT $89.95 31xl00R15AT $118.29 33xl20R15AT $139.95 LT24575R16EAT $115.34 r -I I With Coupon Only ytvs I Expires I January 30, 2005 u stiHMlA dttMiA tf Ihwri fia wWM ttk wteiffiiH 'bttftA f'.,ii!ii bsiW -j lji wwi b ' tttf Details for the Home! art classes in Springville four hours after school started. start-ed.

Reeder said that Skinner Sturgis is a very talented painter and screen artist; designing de-signing T-shirts is a talent he acquired at Springville High. The other graduates are Hannah Leder, who has a soft, tender touch in all her pieces, and Doug Reeder, who paints large and expressively expres-sively and is studying photography pho-tography as well as painting. "This has been a challenging challeng-ing class, and I have been hard on them," said Reeder. "Learning discipline as an artist early in their careers will help them achieve their goals should they choose art as their main occupation and if they keep art on the sidelines side-lines of their lives they will not be confused or feel inadequate inade-quate but can fall back into it and express their feelings."

At All Things Art things are done a little differently. Reeder purchases all the supplies sup-plies from the fees the students stu-dents pay. She takes no money mon-ey for herself. She even buys dry pigments and the students stu-dents mix their own paint. This is something not done even in colleges she said. One of the first projects they completed this year was a fresco. The students learned how to mix the plaster plas-ter and then mix the paints for their piece from the dry pigments. Then they stained their frescos. "They need an advantage to compete in the art world," said Reeder. "Our goal has been a long-range one, not just one semester but a year at a time." Many of the students at All Things Art have been coming com-ing to the school since they were nine. Now they are 16, 17, 18 and older. The ages all work together, and Reeder does not allow school rivalry. "This is a tight-knit group. They honor my only rule -No one can pick on you here, if they do, they can't stay," said Reeder. "This is a safe place, a learning place, an art place." Mary Reeder is helping young people go beyond what they can achieve in public school in pursuing their artistic talents, and what better place to do it than in The Art City! Any interested citizens can see the upcoming exhibit of the advanced students at All Things Art on Thursday, Jan. 13, from 4 to 6 p.m. at 935 S. 1000 East in Springville. - Americana ; l ri rJ O GO o J;JJJX Xv o o -, 7T . .. .00 ' CO.

"Taxpayers should check these tables to see if they're entitled to a larger sales tax deduction than a state income tax deduction," said IRS Commissioner Com-missioner Mark W. Everson. The tables give taxpayers a sales tax deduction amount as an alternative to saving their receipts throughout, the year and tabulating the amount actually ac-tually paid. Taxpayers use their income level and number num-ber of exemptions to find the sales tax amount for their state. The table instructions explain how to add an amount for local sales taxes if appropriate. Taxpayers may download Pub. 600 from www.irs.gov.
