Tuesday and Wednesday of this week brought Emma, Nikki, and myself the pleasure of working with Joseph Skuce and Joanna Swim’s art classes. We carefully danced between gawking at their Summative assignments, introducing TED(x) and our TEDxKids @TheHill Parliamentarian invitation project.
Hat tip to National Geographic for catalyzing the creative output. Joseph’s class decided to go beyond reusing cardboard as their invitation canvases, and delved into Skuce’s National Geographic treasure chest. They also used recycled 90s neon paper from a young Mister’s elaborate prom invitation. Apparently they take prom invitation seriously chez Colonel By, and a young fellow created a mammoth invitation for his lucky Lady-entirely out of 90s neon paper. Thanks to Joseph for hoarding copies of National Geographic, and to the prom king for embracing 90s neon, both of which helped broaden what it means to use recycled paper canvases.
The creativity oozing from these minds was intoxicating to say the least.
A huge thank you to Joseph, Joanna, and their classes for making invitation magic, whilst balancing this so-called Summative… You’re amazing.
