Congratulations to Jocelyn, Nikki and Kimberly! They just had their artwork selected for the Art Educators of New Jersey Early Winter Exhibit at the New Jersey Performing Arts Center in Newark. Their artwork is part of a 30 piece exhibit that is hung in the Victoria Theater Lobby displaying k-12 artwork from around the state. Over 6,000 visitors to NJPAC will see their artwork while it is on display.


They even used Jocelyn's artwork on the invite!
Special thanks to the members of AENJ who volunteer their time and energy to making opportunities available for our students.

After a few days off Visual Journaling is a great way to get back into the swing of things and stretch your creative muscle. Drawing & Painting I & II students each worked on new journal projects.  These one and two day assignments allow students to visually explore subject matter while expanding on previously learned skills and techniques.

Guest Blog Spot...A Visit to Portfolio Day

Let me introduce our guest blogger, Mary... She is an AP Art Drawing I student and she recently went to Portfolio Day in NYC. 

National Portfolio Day was a great way to get constructive criticism and advice from some great colleges. There were hundreds and hundreds of people waiting to show their portfolios to some of the best art colleges around. While standing in line, you could see the other students’ portfolios which was a great way to see what other people were doing. There were some pretty outstanding portfolios, which were both creative and well done. The college representatives that I went to were extremely nice and gave me some great advice. It really seemed like they cared and gave their full attention to the students. It was nice to feel like I was not the only one who was so interested in art. At first I was pretty nervous to go, but it turned out to be a really great experience and I would recommend it to anyone interested in art.
