Sue Silverstein has her groundbreaking art program on high drive. Her students happily abandon TikTok to sit for hours painting, weaving, sewing, and brushing.
Her students’ art (eight classes) is made from the discarded objects sent to her by the Army Of Good.
Here are three more examples today. You can send all kinds of discarded objects to Sue – clothes, wood lamps, cameras, hats, jewelry, shoes, old photos, paint, brushes, etc. – at Sue Silverstein, Bishop Gibbons High School, 2600 Albany Street, Schenectady, N.Y., 12304 and Sue and her students will turn it into art.
She might be the first St Sue The Magician.
Here are three more examples of their work – mixed media fashion designs from the design class and one painting by an 8th-grade student.
Sue’s seniors are working hard to set up a healthy breakfast canteen in her classroom with the food you are sending. It’s a tremendous gift; it taught the students much about America. Thanks again. Food contributions will always be welcome and put to good use—same address as above.
There are more hungry kids out there than you might imagine.
Her students all have art assignments but also get to make art from the things they love that have meaning.
Wonderful work by all the students! I’m going to be cleaning out my art space over the next week or so, and will have some items to send. One is quite heavy, a paper die cutting machine, and I’d like to be sure Sue can use it. Would you please post her email, once again? Thanks!

Jon, is Sue still using Bishop Maginn addresses now she is at Bishop Gibbons School?
