The 6th grade visual art students at Linden SDA were very busy in their preparation for this past holiday season. The young emerging artists created pop up greeting cards with a holiday or winter theme. They became familiar with the history of greeting cards and they also identified several purposes for them. The excitement grew as the students discussed the various ways the holidays are celebrated and expressed as well as the wonders of this cold and snowy winter season. Brrrrr….did we mention cold?!!
DIVAS (Digital Interactive Visual Arts Sciences) for Social Justice aims to bridge the digital divide by combining media literacy and cultural awareness along with a vast understanding of technology to encourage young women in under served communities to pursue careers in computer science and new media.
