🎨✨ Prepare to Be Impressed, Shorthorns! ✨🎨
Join us Friday evening at the Locker Plant (135 E. Oak St.) for a one-of-a-kind Furniture Showcase & Student Gallery Opening beginning at 5:00 PM — 6:30 P.M. free and open to all!
With the support of The Chinati Foundation, our talented students from Ms. Powers’ Digital Media and Art Classes will be showcasing their original work, from concept to creation. 🪑🎭
🖌️ What you’ll see:
• Student-designed furniture pieces
• Drafting, planning, and design processes
• Artwork across multiple mediums—drawing, painting, mixed media, sculpture, and more
In this course, students build their skills from the ground up—starting with contour drawing, shading, and perspective, and advancing into color theory and complex design techniques. What you’ll see tonight is the result of that growth, creativity, and hard work.
👏 Come out and support our students as they host their very own gallery-style exhibition and bring their artistic vision to life!
