14th Annual MASS MoCA Teen Invitational
Thursday, April 16th, 6:00pm - 9:00pm at Mass MoCA
Live performances by local student groups
Exhibition on view April 17 - 26, 11am - 5pm
Featuring the art of 50 Drury Artists to be announced Monday, April 13th and a 3 song performance by members of the Drury Rock Band.
Juried by art students of Mr. Strack and Hartlage's Semester 2 courses. Semester 2 art students' top three favorite pieces were:
1. Keira Martin's "Untitled" Painting
2. Ian Brule's "Jar Jar Jar" Ceramic Lidded Object
3. Ella Morgan's Collaged "Self-Portrait."
Special shoutout to Drury students, Anna Bond, for creating the painting of the MoCA Clocktower center image featured in the traditionally analogue printed posters for the event, and Cleo Welch, who mixed the colors used in the printed poster. Anna is currently enrolled in a new artist mentorship program at MASS MoCA, working with professional artists, and Cleo is interning at the Gary Lichtenstein Editions on the Mass MoCA campus. Both students are experiencing the incredible gift of learning directly from and working with professional career artists.
Mr. Strack's Ceramics students installed their own show on Tuesday, April 14th -- a unique opportunity to learn how exhibitions come to life from behind the scenes.
