Kristine Wright, art instructor with the city's ArtSmarts after school program, gives TeRique Butler, 11, a high five after she named the primary colors with Aaron Miranda, 8, looking on. The trio was preparing for the ArtSmarts Performance and Exhibit Showcase by placing names on the artwork. The showcase will be at

6:30 p.m. Thursday at the Herman Park Center with an art show and performances by the 20 children in the program. This year's showcase will be the last for the program if the city budget is approved because it is on the chopping block.
