The Ratner School Art Program

Please forgive my lack of a blog post last week. We had a busy end of the week before winter break with several exciting events and guests. As part of our MOCA partnership,Ray Juaire, the Senior Exhibitions Manager from MOCA, came to give a talk to all the students about the installation process. He explained the amount of planning, problem solving and energy it took to install the Do Ho Suh show the students viewed. He presented several photos of the process in the new maker space at the school. The students were attentive and excited to see the progress in the making of the space as well. We all thank him for giving up a full day to educate us on the installation of artwork at MOCA.  Several classes are beginning new projects this week and we are right back into the swing of creating.
