The Big Idea

The Big Idea has just done an article on The Artists in Schools project which you can read here.

Work on finishing projects is carrying on and we are continuing to develop ideas which have come from the initial 10 weeks project. Over the following weeks and months I will continue to update the blog with images and news as ideas come to fruition. One project is for the Graffiti Boys to work on painting the wall of a gallery which might be opening here in Dargaville. It is early days but they have completed some initial designs, one of which is above.

Media studies Films

During the ten weeks of the project Year 10, media studies students, have been making short documentaries about the work going on. I am going to upload some examples as they give an overview of the project and it is from the students point of view.

Finished! For Now.

$60 of chips in 5 minutes marked the end of the project and the end of term. I say end but really there are a number of bits to finish off and plenty of work still to do in making sure that the impact of Artists in Schools continues after the 10 weeks.

I will be adding more information about the individual projects in the weeks to come, the final report and progress reports on how work has developed.

Week 10. The End Is Near

It's the final week and everyone is winding down for the end of term and the end of the project. I will put in more details of the projects in the weeks to come as I sort out their projects and make sure it is all documented. Then there is a final report to write and work on projects to be sorted out for next term, until then here are some more photographs of the students work.
