Last spring I met artist Mark Cunningham at the ArtStarts Arts Integration Learning Lab. On the last day of the week-long workshop we realized we had a number of interests in common and over the next few months we worked to put together a project proposal to work with students at New Westminster Secondary School. Thanks to generous funding from an Artists in the Classroom grant, we've spent the last 15 weeks with 58 grade 10 Art & English students introducing concepts and practices of contemporary art and guiding students to build their own projects. This week we wrap up with a final exhibition of student-created work in media including pencil on paper, video, web-based sound mapping, and site-specific installation. Details below:
