Art Night

Art Night is Thursday night and we are really excited.  We are making some final tweaks and trying out some final techniques.  I hope everyone can join us for at least part of the evening.  Doors open at 6 PM and will close at 7:30.

Students will be serving as docents to explain how and why we made the projects that we did.  Almost every student said they want to serve as docents and I will make a slot for all of them.  We will have half hour slots that they can work.  If you can bring your student Thursday evening, please sign up for a slot on the notice outside our class or give Mark a call if you can't make it in.

Our giant map is really coming along.  Today we added some Eastside features like Mt. Tabor, Rocky Butte and some of the Cascade foothills in East County.

Up next we will be learning about Native American history in out region.  We are looking at the continuity of tribal cultures from time immemorial until the present day. In the coming days we are going to watch this video from OPB and discussing how traditions create a sense of community and belonging.
