Arts Magnet Students put on Experience the Experiment

On the evening of January 27th, the Arts Magnet Foundations Class held their fourth annual arts showcase. The show, “Experience the Experiment” consisted of twenty-two acts of poems, monologues, skits, songs, and dances all written  or created by the students. Waiting outside the PAC doors, the various art pieces made by the students were hung on display; everything that the students had made over their entire time in The Arts Foundations class were there for everyone to see.

Art Teacher, John Gunderson, has been mentoring the Arts Magnet students in all of the different art forms, giving the students a chance to experience them in a way no other art class allows.

“The show was simply a great opportunity to show everyone their progress.” says Gunderson, “It was also a fun way for the students to learn about what it is like to put on a theatre production. “

The show was a huge success. Students were pushed outside of their comfort zones and were challenged to try new things. With that in mind, the students were able to step up and perform things that they might never have tried if they had not taken the Arts Foundations class. With a new sense of confidence, the students look forward to another opportunity to display their new found appreciation for the arts.
