Art in the Prep School
25 January 2007
On Thursday 25th January an African Art day was held for Prep 4 pupils. As part of the Art curriculum, pupils are learning to appreciate and understand African Art. Pupils will investigate African dress, body adornment, religion and ceremonies.
Peter Wengraf, a visiting artist from “Arcade Gallery Wengraf” brought his collection of authentic traditional sculptures, masks and artefacts into School. During this time pupils had the opportunity to touch and wear the artefacts.
The aim of the workshop was to inspire pupils and to learn about a different culture. Pupils then had the chance to complete some observational drawings.
