Description of the Project: The students were engaged into the creation of the first LBIS Art Gallery! This project started with an outing to a museum, for them to realise how artworks are curated. During this outing, they were able to gather knowledge and understanding of how a museum works. Back to school, students planned the way they want their museum to be. They came up with the idea of painting on the walls, showing a timeline of art movements. Later, students artworks were placed and properly curated, sharing with the community what art students created at school. The artworks will be rotated each time a unit is completed.
