Come one, come all to our third annual First Artworks Art Show to be held in conjunction with a Chorus presentation on Thursday, November 15th, 2007. The art show will be open from 4 to 8PM in the gym. Framed maserpieces from every student at Tritt will be on display and will be available for purchase.
This year in art our students will travel the world through art by exploring artforms from six continents! They will begin their journey in Europe by studying Vincent Van Gogh. Each class will study the style of his work and incorporate some aspect of the style into his or her own work. By using dramatic colors and bold dabs of paint, Van Gogh's work has made him one of the most recognizable artists of all time. We look forward to seeing our student's Van Gogh-like creations!

Traditions of Excellence in Art
Welcome back to all our young artists! We will start the year off with a unit on Folk art by exploring folk art from around the world .Since folk art is typically defined by the fact that the artist usually did not receive formal training in that medium, we’ll be giving the students some real freedom to express themselves in their first project.
As is our “excellent tradition”, we will focus on the art which will be on display at the High Museum throughout the year. This is an especially exciting year since the High has entered in an exclusive relationship with the Louvre in Paris. Over the next three years, the High will display important collections from the Louvre, some art which has never even left Paris! This will give our community a once in a lifetime opportunity to view works from great masters!
An Evening of Art and Music—November 16th, 2006.
We are pleased to announce our second annual art show which will be held in conjunction with our evening Chorus concert. Art work from every student at Tritt will be framed and on display. Many of you attended last year’s show in the Gym and the feedback we received was very positive. So, we will again be working with First Art Works to bring you a truly professional show. Parents will have the opportunity to purchase original art or reproductions at the show. These frames works will make great holiday presents, so mark your calendar for an evening of the arts.
