Art Honor Society: Field Trip to the Met Museum


Yesterday the Art Honor Society joined the upper level Spanish students for a group field trip to the Metropolitan Museum in NYC as well as lunch at Azulejos.  



We had a chance to stroll through the Modern and Contemporary sections checking out work from a number of the artists we learned about in class from Chuck Close and Alex Katz to Picasso and Van Gogh.  



We also had a chance to see some of the work that won this years Scholastic Art Awards which gives some insight into what the expectations are for the awards.
