At the Lyceum, we strongly believe in the connection between art and story, and this is a class where we give particular attention to exploring connections between these two forms of expression. Whether it’s through writing symbols in the pattern of a Psyanky egg, embedding meaning in the pattern of a weaving, sharing knowledge through symbols on printed canvas, encoding experience on a talking stick through carving or hiding secret messages in mosaic, the stories of our experience are immortalized in our art as traces of cultural learnings.

In the fall we will be exploring the classic Alice in Wonderland and the art form of collage. To give it a special twist we will create a deck of cards where suits share commonalities, but each card will have an individual characteristic.
