Are you one of those people who loves
collecting stuff and yet has no idea how to organize and make use of them? Are you one of
those people who would like to try calligraphy but stuck at where to start? Are you one of those
people who seek art in everyday life? Are you interested in keeping your
memorable moments in a scrapbook? Are you interested in group
discussions of pieces of art that you like? Do you consider yourself an artsy
person?
If any of these statements describe
you, then come join AQ’s new Art Club! This is a place where
people who are passionate about art and life can meet and express their passion
in the form of art! No skills required, all you need is your enthusiasm.
Me, as an international student,
have longed to join a visual art club before I became a student here at Aquinas.
However, on my first day in the school, I learned that there were no art clubs here.
I am one of those students who is never able to pass a PE test, thus when I
found out I was in an athletically strong school, I lost my passion for the
school’s
extracurricular activities. It was about eight months ago when the idea of creating
an art club first came to my mind. I thought through it over and over, and I
eventually found the courage to talk to Mrs. Nosky, the school’s
art teacher. When I first entered the art classroom, I felt like I belonged,
and that was when I learned that I was in a meaningful place.
Since there is still so much that is
undecided of the club, we are holding a few workshops to start with. Our first
workshop has been decided to be a calligraphy class, so if you are interested
in fancy hand lettering skills, or even seeking for improvements or your
handwriting, come join us! I have prepared several different fonts for the club
to practice! Practicing is fun when we are doing it with our friends. So grab some of your friends and
come check out the club! We will not disappoint you!
BTW our first workshop was planned on
Thursday, December 15th, but was cancelled because of the snow. Information
about the workshop will be announced as soon as the new date is decided.
