Course Description
Objectives: This collaboratively taught Social Justice Art course is designed so you have to problem solve and think like an artist. This is accomplished while gaining skills in drawing, painting, and composition, with the additional goals of developing a deeper understanding of self, others, cultural awareness, empathy and areas of interest and advocacy for the arts and important issues of our day.
Content: Given the ongoing uncertainty of living through a pandemic, as well as the added benefits of being able to take advantage of student interests as well as cross-curricular and community opportunities as they may arrive, the exact units of study will be developed as we go, and we will make an effort to keep the website up to date as units are developed.
Social Justice Art Calendar
Mr. Howard intends to try and use the calendar to provide an at-a-glance insight into what we are working on day-by-day, and to help provide access to materials that caretakers may be unable to access from their student's Google Classroom. If the calendar does not appear to be up to date, please reach out to Mr. Howard at ehoward@cvsu.org. We all have the best intentions and are working hard to try and keep our many classes updated, and gentle reminders and prompts are greatly appreciated.
