It’s Biennale time!
Lucky Division 8 has been selected to participate in the 2012/2013 BIG IDEAS Arts in Action sponsored by the Vancouver Biennale. The Vancouver Biennale BIG IDEAS Education Program is a “cross-curricular, multi-grade and inquiry based learning program. BIG IDEAS is designed to nurture and encourage active engagement and inquiry based learning experiences through public art installations.”
Our class has been selected to work with local professional artist, Ms. Maggie Winston. Ms. Winston will lead us through 10 workshops. We will take inspiration from the art installation, “Walking Figures” by Magdalena Abankanowicz. Please visit: http://vblearn.ca/learning/walking_figures to find out more about the art and the artist.
Please check back often for progress updates of our time with Ms. Winston. Thank you!
