Local Student Accepted into Prestigious Mouth and Foot Painting Artists Program!!
East Mills High School student, Grace Day, has been accepted into the internationally recognized Mouth and Foot Painting Artists (MFPA) Program, an organization that supports artists who create their work using only their mouth or feet due to physical disabilities.
Grace’s acceptance is a significant achievement, reflecting her dedication, creativity, and remarkable artistic skill. Through perseverance and passion, she has developed a unique artistic voice that continues to inspire those around her. The MFPA Program will provide her with opportunities to grow as an artist, connect with a global network of creators, and share her artwork with a wider audience.
Her art teacher (Ms. Edwards) and classmates are incredibly proud of her accomplishment and look forward to seeing how she continues to shine in this new and exciting chapter.
Grace’s journey is a powerful reminder that art has no boundaries—and talent, determination, and heart can take you anywhere.
