![Freshman Milan Earl and sophomore Lucy Kaplan sit with their grandparents at Archer’s annual Grandparents and Special Friends Day Friday, March 15. The event took place over three 75-minute sessions. “[I hope my grandparents] gain an understanding about what I do, Kaplan said, because I know they ask a lot of questions and can sort of see what I do in school and what the experience is like to be here.](https://archeroracle.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/grandparents-day-option-2-1200x800.jpg)

There are also drawings and sculptures along the walls of the gallery, such as Sue Sullivan and Jerilyn Joel’s pieces.
Archer faculty members’ art work is currently displayed in the gallery area outside of the library for the faculty art show. The show has been up since the beginning of the school year.
The gallery showcased works created by Marya Alford, Chad Attie, Kate Burns, Stefanie Daehler, Theresa Dahlin, Reed Farley, Cushman Gillen, Jerilyn Joel, Karen Pavliscak, Luke Robertson, Emily Silver and Sue Sullivan.
One of Archer librarian Stefanie Daehler’s photographs features a stream and rocks from the Western Slopes of the Chugach mountain range in Alaska. Daehler took the photo while on a faculty trip with the National Outdoor Leadership School. If she had to caption the photo, Dealer says she would call it “Night Time Stillness In Alaska.”
“I think it’s great that the teachers are being featured in their own show. They get a chance to show their own talents to their students,” Anabel Robertson ’17 said.
