Today, Art III & IV students had the invaluable opportunity to visit the world famous Cleveland Museum of Art. Students experienced a guided tour with a great docent and then had time to complete an art teacher created scavenger hunt that was meant to take them to all corners of the museum. (;>) I had a great time watching my students hold their own while discussing pieces with the docent, enjoying some of the amazing pieces we had time to visit, including the Senufo exhibit. CMA is such an amazing space, I only wish that we had more time to explore! I hope that my student found the field trip to be a valuable experience and that they will travel back to the museum to further explore on their own sometime soon.
Student artists, parents, families, art teachers, administrators and friends gathered on Wednesday, 3/25/15, as the District held its 2nd annual "Art Splash" show reception..
Each art teacher in the District, elementary through high school, submitted two pieces of student artwork to be displayed at the Board of Education building. The pieces will be on exhibit for an entire year. The BOE building is a beautiful structure to begin with although, in my humble opinion, it's attractiveness increases tenfold when the walls are covered with the creative artwork of our WE students. Thanks to all that came out to celebrate and support our talented student artists! Special congratulations to NHS students Amber and Travis on having their work celebrated! (Thanks for making time to attend despite having track practice, soccer practice and prom fashion show rehearsals! You two are the best! :) |
