Arts Collective Update
Spring is here and the Arts Collective is as busy as ever….
We are currently working on two in house projects:
All Grade 8 Graffiti/Urban Art Mural Project With Artists Cris Ciric and Taya Kozak-Goebel
After a workshop on street art, character drawing and stencil making, the students will each design their own 12 X 16 inch design. They will each then stencil their design 3-4 times in the stairwell. Together the stencil paintings will form one large mural encompassing 2 floors of the senior stairwell. This is a chance for all of the Grade 8s to leave a colourful, lasting legacy at Fern!
Currasco's 2 grade 6 classes - Modern Art Decoupage Project With Artists Val Reinis and Taya Kozak-Goebel
Each class will design and decoupage 2 modern chairs using book illustrations. If you have any old illustrated books or comic books that you would like to donate, please drop them off in the office by April 23rd. These modern masterpieces will be auctioned off at the Spring Fling - don't miss out!
Thursday, May 2:
Café Français 5pm dans la Cafeteria
The Grade 7's & 8's will be hosting a French-themed "petit diner" bistro in the cafeteria, complete with crepes, pastries, coffee and juice. Parent volunteers are needed! If you are interested to help, please email Mr. Nikolajevic bogdan.nikolajevic@tdsb.on.ca by next Tuesday.

Following the French festivities, we will gather in the auditorium to enjoy Ballet Jorgen's dance performance. Attendees are encouraged to wear their most glamourous evening theatre attire! Tickets are only $5 and are available in the front office and at the door. Children and parents of all ages are sure to enjoy this show.
Student Art Gallery - Education Week May 6-10
All the students will be displaying their artwork in the main foyer and down the hallways as part of Education Week. Come check out the Fern Art Gallery!

The films created in Joyet Chakungal's Grade 7 class with visiting artist, Brigitte Berman and the Grade 7's one day TIFF workshop will be shown at the Fern Music/Talent night. We will post more information on this exciting event closer to the date.
All the best,
