In a rare move, students in the art department at Los Altos High School are taking their work outside the confines of the high school to the rest of the community.

More than 100 works by 85 students are on display at Main Street Cafe & Books through March 31, courtesy of the high school’s photography and art clubs. Works include photographs, drawings and paintings.

“The exhibit shares our students’ enthusiasm, creative talents and appreciation for visual arts with our community,” said fine arts instructor Christine An.

Many of the students are offering their works for sale to benefit the art department. An said proceeds would help pay for art supplies and equipment, including the addition of a digital photo lab.

An artists’ reception is scheduled 5:30 p.m. Tuesday at the cafe.

An credited Los Altos resident Dee Gibson for coordinating the event with photography club members Anika Norheim, Elizabeth Constantz, Angela Johnston, Lauren Shreiber, Tiffany Dang, Anna Lu, Sarah Birrell and Alexei Baboulevitch.

Main Street Cafe & Books is located at 134 Main St.
