Fall Project Week - Poetry and Art

Project Week is just a blast.

In the fall, I collaborated with Caitin Phelan, HS Learning Specialist, to create an interdisciplinary week-long project creating art and poetry.

Overview: we will explore how works of visual and written art inspire each other, and how they enhance each other’s meaning when we use them together.
We will use a hands-on approach to represent our ideas in a visually interesting way.
Finally, we will express truth in a way that is authentic to ourselves through poetry and artwork, and through accepting and embracing the “mistakes” in our work.
