On October 21, Mr. Conaway took his advanced art and independent study students to the SEMO River Campus to participate in a college art student workshop. This workshop, entitled “innovation dock”, was offered to select students that show an interest in art as a postgraduate possibility. High school students worked alongside college students and were encouraged to “pick the brains” of college students with concerns they may have. High school students also got a chance to meet the amazing professors in the SEMO art department. “It was a great experience for students and I hope it proves that the students asked to participate could fit right into a college art curriculum”, said Mr. Conaway.
On Saturday, October 15, 2022 Mr. Conaway took his high school art club to St. Louis for a full day of visiting art galleries and experiencing the local art culture of St. Louis. The day started with a great visit to the Soulard Art Gallery where we were able to visit with many of the local artists. Each student took home a piece of artwork from the gallery as artist and gallery director Rich Brooks gave every student a signed original art print from his collection. After spending a couple of hours at the St. Louis Art Museum, we ate lunch on the Delmar Loop. Students were able to eat at local restaurants on the Loop as we attempted to avoid everyday fast food. After eating on the Loop, we traveled to the Bruno David Gallery where this photo was taken by world renowned art collector Bruno David himself. Mr. David said our group was the largest to ever visit the gallery and he was delighted by student’s interest in art and complemented our “mature demeanor”. Our last destination of the day was the St. Louis Artist Guild. This was a great visit as the gallery was conducting an artist critique and again students got the opportunity to ask questions to the artist. “This was as perfect of a field trip as I have ever conducted and I can’t wait to go again”, said Mr. Conaway. Special thanks to Mrs. Wilcoxon for going with us and sharing this experience with us.
Congrats to Trent and Mark on a great season!
