FYI - TDSB Creates Festival program in collaboration w/ Artist for Salle 23

Dear Parents / Guardian,

Mme Mahovlich’s class and Mme Jim’s class have been chosen to participate in the TDSB Creates Festival program 2016.  This will take place towards the end of April 2016.

This is a special opportunity to work with a visual artist, Taya Kozak who will explore transformation, identity and new beginnings with our students.  We will create a collaborative art piece that will be enjoyed at Wilkinson Jr P.S. for many years to come. Coincidentally, just in time for Wilkinson P.S.’s 100th anniversary celebration!

The students will be using multi-media collage to explore their personal perspectives and connections to their history, idea of identity, and dreams of their future.

We are asking students to gather:

-yogurt containers the large size (850 g) for mixing paint
-lids from the yogurt containers for use as palettes
-old newspapers 
-magazines with pictures of landscapes, animals, food, lifestyle pictures, etc. (i.e. National Geographic, Owl magazine,  House & home, etc)
-old damaged picture books that we can cut up
-any visual images that represent your family and where they come from (we can go several generations back) 
-pictures of the country of origin your family cam from (people or landscapes)...
Please note: Any family pictures or landscape photos will be scanned and will be returned to the student.

Please drop off any of the above items before April 22, 2016
