Recent ActivityInstructor: SPONSOR - Harriet Jenkins
The Art Club was organized in 1980 to provide opportunities for enrichment activities for students who were enrolled in art. The club was soon expanded to allow access to all students who were interested in participating. Through Art Club activities, students have been provided many opportunities to learn procedures that cannot be offered in the regular art curriculum. Some of these activities have included the use of the 35mm camera, developing film, clay jack-o-lanterns, stained glass, glass etching, digital photography & manipulation of photographs on the computer, rag baskets, basket weaving and holiday workshops. These activities normally take place before or after school. There is no cost to join the Art Club.
The Art Club has also actively supported community and school awareness of the outstanding quality of art produced by students at Gibbs High School. The club often helps provide some of the necessary funds to cover entry fees and prepare student work for such prestigious regional and national shows such as Scholastic Art Awards, the Tennessee Valley Student Art Competition, the Federal Duck Stamp Design Contest, the Congressional Art Competition, the East Tennessee Regional Student Art Exhibition at the KMA, and the Dogwood Arts Festival. In the spring of 2008 the Art Club initiated the first Annual Spring Art Show Reception for students and parents which was held in conjunction with the Spring Choral Concert.
The Art Club is open to all students and members are encouraged to participate in workshops and activities.
