Earlier this year, Mayor Charlie Kahwaty had an idea to give more color and life to the blank walls in the Mayor’s office. He wanted to display artwork from local students on each of the walls of his office. Working with Lauren Gibson, Head Teacher in the Arts Department at Ramapo High School, Mayor Kahwaty was able to borrow seven pictures, representing several of the arts disciplines at Ramapo High School. He then hung them up and has continued to display them throughout the year. It is anticipated that he will rotate these art exhibits throughout the year, so that he can showcase local talented artists and give his office much more character. Pictured above is Mayor Kahwaty showing off one of his walls. The Ramapo High School students that are currently displaying their work in the Mayor’s office are as follows (in alphabetical order):
