Arts Night 2014

Another Arts Night is in the books. Thanks to everyone who came out! It was a great night celebrating the talents of our students. The silent auction raised $250 for our Art Department Field Trip fund, and our art show was really busy! It's so fun to see the students showing off their other talents in band, choir, video production, cooking, and tech classes as well!

Self Portrait Busts

Advanced Art students are creating self-portrait busts out of clay. This ambitious project requires students to study their faces from all angles and sculpt it in clay. Students are just starting these sculptures, but they are already looking great!

Clay Food!

Art 2 students created watercolor paintings and clay sculptures of some of their favorite foods. They will be on display for Arts Night (Thursday 6-8:30). Yum!

Art 1 Wire Sculptures

Art 1 students created sculptures using an arm's length of wire. The sculptures had to be one continuous wire and represent something meaningful to the artist. Once completed, students painted their sculptures and decided how to display them. Finally, students wrote artist statements about the object they created and how they made it. They are on display in the athletic foyer for Arts Night (this Thursday from 6-8:30) - come check them out!

Guerilla Artists

To break up this loooong winter, students are spreading some kindness and creativity! Can't wait to see what they do! Thanks to September Buys for the fantastic idea!

This was so fun! A great way to brighten the end of a looong winter! Driveways were shoveled, baked goods were delivered, artworks were hidden, lockers were decorated, and days were brightened. Here are some pictures of what our Guerilla Artists did!

Art 2 on the Potter's Wheel!

Art 2 students are learning to use the potter's wheel! Every student will spend one class period on the wheel - many will choose a second or third day because it is so fun!
