BHS in DC

On Tuesday, upper level Art and Craft students visited two art galleries in Washington DC. Our first stop was the National Gallery of Art where students went on a scavenger hunt for works we've studied in class as well as brand new-to-them works. It was impressive and exciting to hear students call art by the title or identify the artist without looking at the label! After a lunch in the gallery cafeteria we walked across the mall to the circular Hirshorn Museum. There we enjoyed three levels of art that included giant wall murals, sculpture and modern art. What a great group of people to spend the day enjoy art with!
