What to expect this February:

February will be another super busy and creative time for us as we explore and create artwork from the following inspiration:

• Robert Indiana's LOVE sculpture.
• To celebrate the spirit of Valentines Day, students will create a mixed-media project inspired by Indiana's sculpture.
• Students will also learn about Indiana's artwork inspired by the signs we see around us.
• February 1st marks the first day of Black History Month and we will explore and create art inspired by the following artists, themes, and poets:
• Langston Hughes, Elizabeth Catlett, Romare Bearden, and Jacob Lawrence.
• The Harlem Renaissance. 

Here is an awesome video created by Google that the class will watch to kick off this exciting month:
