Using the sculpture and gardens as inspiration and resource, students who visited LongHouse this year were invited to participate in Student Annual IV. Guided by their teachers, they interpreted their visit(s) in prose, poetry, mixed media, craft, photography, painting, architecture, design and sculpture. We also had the dance Elements, a multi-award winner, performed on site.
88 individual and 9 collaborative prizes were awarded to Kindergarten through Grade 12 students from the following schools: Amagansett School, Bellport High School, Bridgehampton School, Brookhaven Technical Center, East Hampton High School, Eastern Suffolk BOCES, Half Hollow Hills West, John M. Marshall Elementary School, Longwood High School, Montauk School, Patchogue-Medford High School, Riverhead High School, Rocky Point High School, Ross Lower and Ross Upper School, Sayville High School, Southampton Intermediate School, Springs School, Tuckahoe Common School and West Babylon High School.
More than 325 students, superintendents of schools, principals, teachers, school and LHR Board Members, families, guests and members of the press were in attendance at the June 13th event where winning entries were displayed and student winners were presented their prizes. Congratulations to those who participated and thanks to all for a job well done! A big thank you goes to our volunteer LH School Docents for inspiring all they led.

INTERPRETIVE POETRY
1st Place Interpretive Poetry Charlie Bedard Peter's Pond Teacher Ms. Leszczynski Sixth Grade Tuckahoe Common School
Peter’s Pond I reflect as if I’m a mirror I am a fishing tank with no top I am as soothing as yoga I am a body with creatures in me I am as beautiful as a full moon
I smell the sweet smell of lily pads I feel fishes swimming through me I hear water flowing I feel frogs jumping across my lily pads I feel raindrops making me grow I hear people saying how beautiful I am
By Charlie Bedard
2nd Place Interpretive Poetry Luz Espinosa Hoop Garden Teacher: Ms. Leszczynski Sixth Grade Tuckahoe Common School
Hoop Garden I am a garden, you look at me as an amazing tunnel from Alice and Wonderland. As you walk along me , you smell me as a brand new perfume. I'm a garden, full of nature, like a forest, beautiful as a beach. You can hear, the peaceful singing of the birds, trying to make you fall asleep. My rough flowers, are rough as sandpaper, And little bumpy rocks. The flowers are dancing, to the soothing wind, as if the wind was a song.
By Luz Espinosa
3rd Place Interpretive Poetry Jamie Arias Untitled Teachers: Ms. Nicoletti, Mr. Cossentino Sixth Grade Montauk School

3rd Place Interpretive Poetry (tie) Isabella Aguero and Nina Gonzalez Untitled Teachers: Mrs. Frazier, Mrs. Tully Fifth Grade Springs School
Untitled You push each other Wanting to take up as much Space as you can. You want the spotlight All to yourself In a small boat Slightly hidden from the rest Of the world. Splatter glass Colorful fireworks, A burst of energy; In a small rowboat. On Chihuly’s glass onions. Unique not like another, Just like a fingerprint.
By Nina Gonzalez & Isabell Aguero
3rd Place Interpretive Poetry Paul Vespe Untitled Teachers: Mrs. Frazier Fifth Grade Springs School
Untitled The sound of music Flutters around Entering my eardrums. Another language IS being SPOKEN As I play I stand there Blowing my HORN. Everyone’s lookin at me. This was nothing like a stage. It was more! I felt like I Could be free.
Inspired by Barcelo Hoop; You’re hope In African. A giraffe? Maybe, But the way I see you You’re a Friend. A friend Who cannot Move, Just has to stay In that pose. So I’ll stay with you, As ELEPHANTE.
Untitled I see you swim I watch Stone still Water Staying upside down! I’ll be still, wataching You enter I see you Fall… I see turtle But, in reality, Elephante.
By Racer Oddo
