Visitors will be invited to view five of the IB Art students' visual displays, showcasing art they have been working on for the past two years. This presentation will act as a culminating assignan international IB examiner. All of the arts students-- Rachel Voisin, Jack Britton, Emily VanDyk, Alexis Gough and Fiona Meredith-- will answer questions after their evaluations. Also enjoy live jazz and piano music, then watch as the IB Theatre class presents WASP by Steve Martin, a play that takes a comical look inside a house that's living "The American Dream". Like the Visual students, this theatre project is an assignment that is worth 25% of their final IB grade. Director Michelle Duquette has been working with students George Bamforth, Leah Johansen, Jamie Nicol, Shannon McMullin, Nicole Hanley, Eric Smith and Matt Blundell to create the entire production, from acting to set/lighting design and costumes.
