Tinley Park High School hosted the SSC Publications Conference on Friday! Students who attended from various schools were able to sit in breakout sessions with a variety of presenters to talk about many different media related fields.
Oak Forest AP Studio Art Teacher Dan Chambers and student artist Abbey H. were live on CBS2 this morning to talk about the Memory Project!
For the past few weeks, Oak Forest High School AP studio art students have been working on portraits of children in need from Colombia through the Memory Project. Eleven students from OFHS have put in hours of hard work painting and/or drawing their portraits.
On the back of each portrait, students traced their hands and wrote a message inside the tracing to the child they created artwork for. Children who will receive their artwork are orphans, refugees, or displaced. OFHS students are proud to work so hard on something they ultimately have to give away.
Learn more about the project and check out the interview below! #TheBengalWay
