Grade 12 Art - Special Projects
The following is a list of tasks that replicate the types of artistic and creative skills that are used in a variety of different Art-related jobs in the real world. Students will sign up for these tasks based on their interests and strengths. Each of you must make note of what you are expected to accomplish and when in order to complete your assignment.
(NOTE: In the case of our small class this year, many of you will be called upon to complete more than one task. You will be evaluated across everything that you do related to these jobs.)
