Festival of the Arts 2023

Festival+of+the+Arts+2023

Festival of the Arts is a Village School tradition kickstarted by Dave the science teacher roughly 16 years ago. It is always held the day before Spring Break and is essentially a day that celebrates and highlights students’ talents and interests.

It gives students a way to express themselves and share their hobbies and interests.

We kicked off this year’s festival of the arts with collage making, water colors, and pizza making in the morning.

 

Amanda Luo ran a watercolor workshop for her classmates

After, Steve held a guitar performance between 10:55-11:05 in the gym where he introduced a new kind of amplifier called Spark Plays, and played various melodies over it.

Then, Jack held Let’s Make Up a Story, Ella hosted Special Effects Make Up, and Hanah continued leading Pizza Making Part 2.

Students make a pizza for Village students and staff.

After lunch, in the 1:00-1:35 slot, students participated in a Mario Kart tournament, Tie Dying, and a drawing exercise called “Exquisite Corpse.” From 1:40-2:15, there was the Art of the High Jump, Chess 101, Jewelry Making. Then, from 2:15-2:30, Salem played the piano for the entire student body.
