    THE FIFTH ANNUAL Essence of the North Student Art Exhibit is currently on display at the Aroostook Centre Mall in Presque Isle.

Sponsored by the Northern pARTners Aroostook County Regional Art Educators, this year’s show features selected art pieces from students in Caribou, Limestone, Connor, Easton, St. Agatha, Frenchville, Hodgdon, Houlton, Mars Hill, Presque Isle, Mapleton, Ashland and Washburn. A reception for the student artists, their families, teachers and administrators was held Friday night in the gallery space located near the arcade. Here, Micah Calhoun, 8, a second-grader at Ashland District School, admires his Kandinsky Circle that is part of the exhibit. The artwork is on display through April 6. A story and more photos will appear in next week’s issue of The Star-Herald.
