Since the students of Graustein Academy receive a varied education, art should of course not be missing. Therefore the art week is now on the timetable. Under the guidance of a young, contemporary artist, the students and teachers are to approach the subject with a love for experimentation. Lynne Lampenlicht even manages to win the heart of Mrs. Harschmann, who usually doesn't let a hippie girl with flower pants tell her anything. An exhibition is planned at the end of the project, where there will be a prize. Mona is thrilled, Mildred very insecure and Esther wants nothing to do with it. That changes when she discovers that the young woman is a celebrated artist and Mildred turns out to be a great talent. Now she's determined to win first prize.
