At the culmination of each semester, the artistic talents of many Blue Cluster students are displayed in a gallery for viewers to walk through and admire.
Last year, Art Teacher Sophie Yolowitz created the Blue Cluster Visual Arts Show to showcase the work of her students in the first semester of school. Students, teachers, administrators, and parents came to a Performing Arts Center transformed into an art gallery.
Ms. Yolowitz wanted to do the same thing for her students last fall and this winter, even if it would had to look a little different due to safety guidelines.
Using Google Slides and a little imagination, Ms. Yolowitz created a virtual art exhibition to display the students’ artwork. Each slide features different pieces, and the entire thing is set up to look like an art museum.
In an effort to make the artists feel seen and celebrated, she asked the Blue Cluster teachers to “walk” through the art show and add comments onto the artwork in the speaker notes section of each slide, which were later shared with students.
Walk through the art show yourself to see the great work produced by the Blue Cluster students in Ms. Yolowitz’s class!
