Upper School Honors Arts students created a “pop up” self-portrait exhibit in and amongst the All-Colleague exhibit currently on display in the Dolan Center Art Gallery (top floor) during their most recent group meeting.

Students worked in small teams to curate questions for each artist, considering intent, impact, inspiration, processes, and materials.  Next, each student will respond to the questions they received with an Artist’s Statement that will be shared with their fellow Honors Arts classmates.
