The art classes were located downstairs at ground level. Those big long tables were there for us to sit at and create! Fast forward to around 2019 there was talk about remodeling the school, due a variety of updates needed. When the demo started, they removed and sold practically everything that was moveable. My oldest daughter was one of the individuals who over saw certain aspects of the demolition. One day she informed us they were selling off all remaining items at Sehome and as you guessed….those long heavily used art tables were there! Naturally of course, I rushed down there to the demolition site and bought a piece of my good but very heavy memories – an art table.
