Annual Art Open House

11/25/2020

We are all disappointed that Covid-19 concerns have cancelled our Annual Art Open House for 2020. For those who have made this event a tradition, we will post some gift ideas from some of the artists that are available for purchase. We hope to see for the 50th Annual Art Open House December 4, 2021!

Linda Swift will have calendars again this year! They will be available directly from her for $20 each and
will also be sold by the Seminary Co-op Bookstore. E-mail Linda at [email protected] if you
are interested. The photos are all part of The High School Photo Project, conducted at University
High, the Lab Schools, and at Kenwood Academy. Seniors are invited to bring a quotation they
believe speaks to their identity. They write the quote on a chalkboard at their school and these are
some of the portraits that have resulted.
