Students participating with AAC CE’s Programs for Schools at Dater High School were honored to join the BLINK Festival Parade, collaborating to create faux stained-glass Eyeball Luminaries, using translucent spray paint and stenciling techniques, while exploring themes of self-discovery through iconography, and learning about the science of the eye and light refraction.
Programs for Schools partners with area schools to provide educational opportunities for students to participate in hands-on visual art activities integrating academics, 21st century skills, and college and career preparedness. In 2017, external funding continues to allow AAC CE to provide outreach to Greater Cincinnati Area school through Programs for Schools, celebrating 25 years of impact made to schools in need. We thank the following: the Charles H. Dater Foundation, the Nellie Leaman Taft Foundation, The P&G Fund of the Greater Cincinnati Foundation, and our partnered school districts.
