Students in the AP Studio Art class at PHS are participating in the Artists Reaching Classrooms Program with the Taft Museum of Art. www.taftmuseum.org/?page_id=103 On Oct. 5, students went on their first field trip to the Taft Museum where they got a tour from our program docents.
After our tour each student went back through the museum to choose an artwork they will do a presentation on when we return in early December. Here is a photo of the whole class with Ms. Holliday in front of the museum.
Yesterday, local artist Joanne Honschopp visited the class at PHS. Check out her artwork here www.jhonschopp.com She did a demonstration of her painting technique for the class! We still have a few more artists visits to look forward to, meanwhile students in the class are working to develop an idea for their own artwork that they will create based on or inspired by some part of their experience with the ARC program.
