Students show creativity with upcoming art shows
March 10, 2020
Multiple students from East High will participate in two art shows across Rockford throughout the next two months.
There will be a show at the Rockford Art Museum, opening March 15, running to April 3. The former will include an opening ceremony from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m., honoring the students participating.
Another show opened March 4 at Rock Valley College and will run until April 1. This highlights many students active in art at East. It is being showcased in the Estelle M. Black Library from 8 a.m to 8 p.m.
“It boosts everybody’s confidence in their art, [as] other people can view it. You can also get some inspiration from other artists,” said Camila Rivera, class of 2020. She submitted a collage of her baby sister made from newspaper clippings.
