Concert decoration was in full swing here at our middle school. In our club, this year, we decided to focus on Matisse, since there was a huge retrospective right here in Manhattan at the MOMA. After taking a field trip to view the famous cut outs, we chose a famous Matisse to seek inspiration from. Students spent hours and hours (and hours) transferring drawings, painting them and hanging them in time to serve as the backdrop for our school's choral, band, and orchestral concerts. Our club members learned an invaluable amount about art history, collage, mural and public artwork as well as getting hands on experience in time management!
