Art Program
The Art Program has been busy this semester and is ready to wrap it up right before the Holiday Break. Art Club participated in both community Trunk or Treat this year with their Beetlejuice theme, face-painting, and treats. Thanking our Military Veterans and celebrating the fall season were our themes for elementary art display boards. Every art student created with clay this semester: Kindergarten- Textured ornaments, 1st Grade- Footed Leaf Impression Spoon Rests, 2nd Grade- Textured Polar Bear Sculptures with colorful glazed designs, 3rd Grade- Textured Folded Owl Wall Hangings (this project was a HOOT! ), 4th Grade- Tree Sculptures, 5th Grade- Ceramic Shape Mobiles with texture impressions, 6th Grade- Pinch pot cups with handles, Junior High Art 7 students - Coil Design Bowl and Cup sets and High School Art- Tree Sculptures, Mugs, Lanterns, Vases, Leaf Impression Bowls and Woven Clay Baskets. The Art Exhibit at the Elementary Winter Concert this week also had paintings, weaving, and drawings in many different art mediums. Our Griffin Artists have been a busy, creative crew this semester. The JH/High School Winter Fine Arts Night will be this coming Thursday and we are looking forward to displaying their artwork for you to view. There will be teacher examples and student collaboration artwork for sale as well if you are looking for one-of-a-kind artwork for your home or a gift to share with someone this holiday season. All proceeds will go to purchasing bonus art materials/tools for the students to create with this coming semester.
