Purpose of the SCS Art Happenings Blog

The purpose of this blog is to provide an informative resource for Sigsbee Charter School (SCS) students and their families. The information included in this blog will pertain directly to the unit of study I am teaching in art class, enrichment class, and exploratory class. You will see pictures of artwork added to the blog as frequently as they are completed at school.

Enjoy!

Upcoming Events

Be on the look out for the following exciting events in the Sigsbee Art Department:

Gyotaku with Kim Wallen:  she's a fabulous local fish printing artist coming to visit my 6th grade printmaking class.  We'll be fish printing on shirts, fabric, paper...so fun!

Sand sculpture class with The Sandbox sculptor, Marrianne van den Boek:  the 6th grade honor roll students are taking a field trip with me to learn how to make a sand sculpture.

Petri Island sculpture exhibition with Jim Toia:  300 of our own Sigsbee students will be creating a small part of this large exhibition.  Each student will design and fill a petri dish.  The petri dishes will be added to the instillation at Studios of Key West in July.  Jim will be visiting our school mid-March.
