This month’s Plate and Goblet feature in the Henrico Citizen includes a special creative touch from Northstar students.

As part of a classroom project called Celebrating Success, students explored the playful food sculptures of artist Claes Oldenburg and then created their own party-themed food art. The exhibit was the first art show to display in the Daly Family Community Room and shown for two of this spring’s biggest public events: the student talent show and the community ribbon cutting for Northstar’s new gymnasium and community center.

Their whimsical creations—ranging from oversized cupcakes to sculpted grapes—reflect the imagination, joy, and confidence our students bring to their learning.

We’re thrilled that Northstar students’ artwork is part of this month’s edition, showing how our students’ talents and creative voices are being celebrated across the community.

Plate and Goblet is a popular food-focused column that highlights local culinary stories, restaurants, and community food events.
