Fall 2015 School Programs: Post Visits

Welcome back! We're now in the Post Visits phase of our fall 2015 School Programs schedule, which means K.I.D.S. Teaching Artists Ruth Wetzel and Victoria Calabro are visiting students in their classrooms at P.S. 15, P.S. 146 and PAVE to follow up on the projects they started in the gallery.



As you may remember, in their gallery visit the students created experimental sound drawings and detailed observational drawings in response to "Soundings," a collaborative exhibition by artists Margaret Cogswell and Ellen Driscoll inspired by the sights and sounds of Red Hook. They transcribed sounds into lines and color using colored pencil, and they drew examples of local plant life from Ellen Driscoll's large works using white conte on black paper.





In the classroom, each student was given his or her earlier drawings along with another prompt: first, create additional observational drawings of neighborhood architecture, and then combine elements from each of the 3 works into a new collage depicting a "soundscape" of Red Hook. The students discussed their experiences walking around their neighborhood, and considered how sights and sounds influence the energy of a place.





Take a look at some of their finished artworks, hung in the classrooms and hallways for all to enjoy!







Big, big thanks to our Teaching Artists and partner classroom educators for making this magnificent program possible. We look forward to completing the final Post Visits next week and seeing what the spring season holds!
