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.

Overviewwe 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.
