On May 14th at 6:00pm Nipmuc
is proud to hold the opening of its annual Fine Arts Festival. Each year our
school looks forward to this opportunity to display the amazing work of our
student-artists. If you have ever enjoyed the chance to walk Nipmuc's halls, then you are familiar with the impressive art that is created
in our award-winning art program. Art teachers Mr.
Campbell and Mrs. Clish, along with all of their students, are excited to
welcome you to view more than one thousand pieces of student art, including
portfolios for many of our Advanced Placement students and upperclassmen. The
art show opens at 6pm on Tuesday, 5/14 in the Nipmuc gymnasium.
I also want to make parents
aware that some of the work of our Advanced Placement students deals with
mature themes including drugs/alcohol abuse and self-harm or
"cutting". Due to the mature nature of the themes and the artwork,
some of this work will be placed in specific sections of the gym, allowing
those who attend the Fine Arts Festival to choose if they would like to view the work. If your
child plans to attend the art show tomorrow night, I encourage you to attend
with him/her.
Our students' paintings,
photography, illustrations, sculpture, and all other forms of art have become a
great source of pride for our school. I invite everyone to share in that pride
on Tuesday night. We hope to see you there.
