Invitation designed by senior, Aabha Vora Join us for the opening reception of the fifth annual Academy Arts Night! March 16th 6 - 8pm STEM Academy Knowledge Commons The evening will feature the senior exhibitions of the class of 2016. These students have worked tirelessly for two years in International Baccalaureate Visual Art to build a body of work. The culminating experience of curating their own show is not only a highlight of their high school visual art course work, but is also an IB Internal Assessment. Students select their best work to demonstrate their technical skills, formal qualities and conceptual qualities. They decide the best way to arrange the work and consider the audience's experience for maximum visual impact.
The Year 1 IB Visual Art students (juniors) will also exhibit their work, as a way of warming up their curatorial skills for next year. Sophomores and freshmen in Art in the 21st Century I and II will also show their best work from this school year. We have some great judges lined up to jury the show, including two Art Educators and a Graphic Designer. They will award ribbons for the most cohesive and visually impressive senior exhibitions and individual pieces by category, such as painting, drawing, photography and sculpture. Achievement ribbons will also be awarded to individual art works which will then receive the honor of being displayed at the Downingtown Library in the fall. STEM Academy teachers and staff will also vote on a select handful of works to be displayed prominently in the main office of our building. The works that receive this honor will be on display for the next school year. We are proud to present this evening of art, light refreshments and live music for a fifth year! Please join us and bring your family. The arts are alive at STEM!
