Art Society Trip

The art society has taken trips for the past 11 years with the intent to bring students to the artwork and enrich their understanding of society and culture. For the past 3 years the Art Society has had the awesome opportunity to compete in the OVA, which completes the experience and gives the students the opportunity to compete and represent their school as artists.
