Studio Art: Going Global

We have finished the introductory project of creating a crane so next log on to the Japan Society's Going Global social network and share their work and begin a conversation.  We will upload photos of the crane's we created and introduce ourselves to the classes in Pakistan and Japan.  The crane above was created by Gabby, a senior who was with the Japan Society this summer for the student trip through Going Global.  She spent 3 weeks touring the country and attending school with her "host sister".

Studio Art: Textile design and Origami


In Studio Art class we worked on creating unique textile designs and now it is time to learn some basic origami.  We will be designing our own origami paper like the example shown below then creating 3 origami cranes.  The video above shows the step by step instructions so you can replay it if you get lost.  After the 3 cranes are completed we will photograph them and mail them away to a memorial!
