We have had the best time facilitating the Modigliani Self-Portrait Project this March! Self-portraits can be a wonderful means of self-reflection and acceptance, not to mention fun! And it's always great to learn about and be inspired by such a prolific artist! The scholars at Affirm Leadership Christian Academy did such an amazing job capturing the spirit of Modigliani, as well as our students at North Chicago Community Partners and the after-school art club at John Lewis Middle School! Thank you to our community partner Gorton Center for offering this project to the community! If you are interested in completing this project yourself, register for The Art Center Highland Park April 22nd session for free here: theartcenterhp.org/evrplus_registration/?action=evrplusegister&event_id=451 ...

Today wrapped up our Black History Month project, Perspectives, inspired by Harlem Renaissance artist Jacob Lawrence. Lawrence painted his vision of poverty, crime, racial tensions, and police brutality, based on his experience of urban life around him, but he also portrayed a vibrant, thriving community and the aspirations of its people. These paintings celebrated African heritage and embraced self-expression, rejecting long-standing—and often degrading—stereotypes. We asked the students at North Chicago Community High School to think about both meanings of perspective and share a special place in their own community. Great job NCCHS Freshman Connections! ...
