Students meet to explore new kinds of art and to create their own art with potential input from fellow students. This is an opportunity for student artists to explore and create for themselves without having assignments or grades. Students self-direct their own projects and collaborate with others if desired. Students bring their own materials to use but may keep them in a locked cabinet if they do not want to transport them everyday. We meet Tuesdays and Thursdays after school.
