​Good Morning Beautiful People,
 
This will be your last assignment for the year. Make sure you all pay attention. Due to senior grades you will need to turn this in NO LATER THAN JUNE 2ND.
 
You must write a 3-page paper explaining and turn in your work of art:

• why you created the type of art you chose and what you believe will be the impact on the community.
• how you will distribute this work of art.

 
Good Luck and Most Respect,

Good morning wonderful People,
 
This week you will continue your work with assignment 2 of your project. Last week you should have explained why art is important during a crisis. This week you will continue this work by finding evidence that art has helped our communities during times of crisis.
 
This week you and your group will find a time in history where art was used to respond to social and or political crisis. Think of times when we have been challenged for example, The September 11 attacks, Katrina, 1992 uprisings, and tell me how art has been used to respond to these moments in time.
 
You will not be writing yet, this week you will:
 
Pick a time in history to focus on
Get at least 5 sources to help you understand how art responded to this crisis. (sources can be articles, songs, painting, poems or photographs)
 
You will need to fill out the attached Evaluating Articles page (only one per group) that is attached. There is also a rubric called C.R.A.P. Test for looking at your sources. Look at this first and find your sources. You will be graded on this rubric and your completion of the Evaluating
 
 DUE Saturday MAY 16th
 
 

​Good morning wonderful People,
 
Today we start working on our Artistic Response project. During this project you will create an original work of art and find a way to broadcast it to the world. You are all great artist and we can’t wait to see how your art will uplift and empower our communities. Before we start your creation of art, we have to answer the questions “Why art is important during crisis?” and “How does entertainment respond to and reflect social and political crises?”
 
This week we will answer these questions but look more closely on “Why art is important during the covid-19 pandemic?” This question will be answered in one TIEA paragraph. You will need to site at least two sources in your paragraph. To help you out a bit I will give you some focus questions:

• Why art is important during crisis?”
• How does entertainment respond social and political crises?
• Why art is important during the covid-19 pandemic?
• What kind of art have you done during the pandemic? How has it helped you?

 
If you answer all the questions in your paragraph you will be in great shape.
 
To help you here is a list of articles and videos you can use. You may also find your own information. (these will also be on my website for you to see the videos
