Hats Off to Artists in Roosevelt Intermediate School

Students modeled custom-designed hats.

Sixth graders in Anne Cohen’s art class at Roosevelt Intermediate School in Westfield model their custom designed hats inspired from the New Era 59Fifty exhibition of award winning unique cap designs. Mrs. Cohen shared with her students a book published by New Era with 70 creative hats. 

“The students were totally inspired to create their own one-of-a-kind creation,” explained Cohen.  “Each student was given a blank white cap and they were able to capture their own creative profile on it. Using a variety of materials -- paint, feathers, fabric, buttons, wood scraps and any other found objects they could find-- each student found his/her  path to define themselves visually,” she added.
