Light Bulb Art

Have students decorate light bulb cut-outs as part of your celebration. Light bulb art is one of the hallmarks of Lights On Afterschool. Each year tens of thousands of student-decorated light bulbs adorn events, and are sent to elected officials to remind them of the importance of your program.
