Art City fifth grade students held their annual wax museum at the end of January.   Students dressed up as famous and important people or characters in United States' history.  Some of the characters from history included; George Washington, Betsy Ross, Albert Einstein, Elvis Presley, Jackie Robinson and Walt Disney.  The rest of the students in the school, as well as family, were able to walk through the museum and stop and listen to the "famous person" tell a little about themselves and their history.   Art City has been doing the wax museum for over 21 years.  The wax museum gives students an opportunity to read biographies, learn how to write a research paper and create a slide show presentation about their character.  Students have fun dressing up, and teachers enjoy seeing the efforts put into the characters.
