Celebrating "Chandeleur" (Crêpes Day), a delicious holiday for sure! It is believed to have begun in the year 472 (but possibly a pagan ritual even before) when crêpes (very thin pancakes) were offered to French Catholic pilgrims visiting Rome for Candlemas by Pope Gelasio.

Graffiti and street art has a prominent place in the Africa-American community, capturing a unique perspective on Black culture. Street art is often seen as a populist art form, visible to anyone and everyone, not shut away in a gallery. The form lends itself to bold statements about social issues because it is generally regarded as being produced by the people, for the people.

Le Lycée brought in three local graffiti artists who worked with our AP art students to create 5ft x 4ft pieces with the theme of ‘Education’. One depicts Melba Pattillo Beals, who was a member of the Little Rock Nine, the first Black students to integrate Little Rock Central High School. The second one depicts one of the pillars of education at Le Lycée. All are hung on the main stairwell at the high school campus.

This year's Black History art contest will focus on the CROWN act, which was created in 2019 to ensure protection against discrimination based on race-based hairstyles by extending statutory protection to hair texture and protective styles such as braids, locs, twists, and knots in the workplace and public schools
