Club Opportunities for Visual Artists!

Students interested in opportunities for art making after school can work with David Love on Tuesdays and Thursdays throughout the year in Art Club, the place to explore drawing, painting, and printmaking.   On Monday's and Wednesdays beginning Nov 1, students can learn to make jewelry and small metal objects in Jewelry Club.  Both clubs begin after school and continue until 4:30.

Summer Reading Meets the Creative Process

A group of students spent their summer reading day amidst the studio and the kitchen making art, dying fabric, and cooking an authentic french meal.  David Love co sponsored "Travels with Che by Alberto Granado" bringing students into the studio to investigate the collage process.  Sara Ritz co-sponsored "Color: A natural History of the Palette by Victoria Finlay". And Gaby Russomagno sponsored "Julie and Julia by Julie Powell". Watch the projects in action.
