What is Art Club?

What+is+Art+Club%3F

Art Club is a group of freshman, sophomores, juniors, and seniors who do art every Thursday in the pottery room. The art resources are vast so students can do nearly any kind of art they want to do. The club president, senior Anastasia Golyakova, started the art club in the spring of 2016 because she realized there wasn’t one. It had a slow start because of how late it was in the school year and it’s lack of publicity, but she has ignored the small numbers from last year and she has kept with art club and made sure it was publicized more this year. “I wanted to build a good environment to know each other, and have some good connections,” she said.

The numbers each week are in the low twenties, and people just keep flowing in. Club member Jawara, also a senior, said his favorite part of art club is “Being able to express my ideas with my friends.” Another member, Alexis Lightner says, “Being able to see other artist’s work and work around other artists,” is what’s making the club enjoyable for her. While people from all four grades gather every week, everyone has their own artistic style, which makes this club even more unique than one person on their own.
