The Windsor High School's Pre-AP Art students invite you to the free opening reception of their exhibit "Layers of Home" a collaboration with the Windsor Historical Society. The exhibit opens Thursday, January 12, 2017 with a reception from 5:00 - 7:00 p.m. at the Windsor Historical Society (96 Palisado Ave) and runs through March 1, 2017.
Each student has created a collage incorporating layers of their hometown. Meet these talented Windsor students and celebrate the connections they have made between Windsor’s past, present, and future through their art.
Windsor High School Education and Outreach Manager John Mooney and Windsor High School art teacher Marjorie Renno guided the 11th grade students as they toured their town this past fall, took digital images, and worked in the studio to craft their works of art. Each work will include representations of architectural elements discovered on their walk through town as well as maps, sketches, and photographs. Each is accompanied by an artist’s statement outlining how Windsor’s landscape and architectural features contribute to their personal sense of home.
Rainbow Bus donated the transportation to and from Windsor High School and Rabbett Insurance Agency is sponsoring refreshments for the exhibit opening. This exhibit is free and open to the public.
