The Academy of LVA’s Experimental 3D Art class was designed to investigate the less formal side of sculpture and installation while delving into the realm conceptual ideas. This project, made exclusively for the opening of The Speed Art Museum, explores the future dreams of the students through their ever-changing lives while remarking on the fluidity and inconsistency that growing up brings.

When we visited the Meyzeek CFAC class students were working on creating a "4-up" pop-art style portrait— complete with patterned backgrounds and bold lines. Each background required students to create a composition using color theory. We are looking forward to seeing the end result at the exhibition this spring!
We visited William Duffy's CFAC class at Manual while they were working on creating self portrait etchings. The students had to think in reverse— laying down the highlights instead of shadow and line. Students used textures and patterns from around the room to fill in a dynamic background. We can't wait to see their finished projects at the exhibition this spring!
We had such an amazing time watching The Academy students rock our scavenger hunt around Nulu last weekend! A HUGE thank you to all our sponsors who provided gift cards as prizes: Scout, Ethyl 3.9, Please and Thank You, Jeb Advertising, Bermuda Highway, Red Tree, Gifthorse, Peace of Earth, Revelry, Barry Wooley Designs, and St. John UCC! These businesses are amazing supporters of the arts— let's show them some love this holiday season when we're getting gifts!
Congratulations to Carolyn Siegenthaler for winning the People's Choice Award with this piece!
It's an exciting time around the LVA offices as teachers turn in their end of the semester artwork. Janet Britt and Liesl Long both came into our Clifton Center classroom yesterday to mat their student's work and we couldn't believe how amazing everything looked! It's going to be a great year for the exhibitions— you won't want to miss them!
