Learning about the visual arts gives students a window onto the rich and interesting world around them, teaching them about their own history and culture, as well as those of other people. It cultivates self-expression, imagination and creativity as well as critical-thinking and problem-solving skills. Students who learn about art develop their capacities to weigh meanings and make evaluations and judgments. Understanding and making art can teach students how to work cooperatively in groups and how to work hard to achieve a goal." The Value of Art Education: |

Greenfield High SchoolPresents 2008 Blossoming Artists Calendar
The 2008 Blossoming Artists Calendar showcases artwork of talented Greenfield High School students. At Greenfield, the Arts play an important role in our students' lives, expanding young minds, developing creativity, and promoting accomplishment and self-esteem. Our faculty challenges blossoming artists in the various aspects of visual art, music and theater. Several of the visual works depicted in this year's calendar were among the best in local and regional art competitions, including the prestigious Boston Globe Scholastic Art Awards. Students selected media throughout the academic year that suited their artistic ideas and personalities. As a result this calendar includes works in traditional styles of oil, acrylic, torn-paper, watercolor, and graphite. These young artists know that their work represents a fundamental mode of communication beyond written language, and they hope you enjoy their illustrations during the coming year. We are proud to share their art with you. Copies of the Calendar are available for purchase Price: $15 (shipping and handling, add $2.00)

Proceeds from the sale of the 2008 Blossoming Artists Calendar support art and technology education at Greenfield High School. Thank you for your support.
