Art enhances one’s ability to see and define things in our world with the many available materials. The art clubs of Albemarle High School have been very active this year. In previous years, the art club has been one group, but this year, the club had to be split into two groups because of overwhelming interest. In order to make Albemarle a better place in which to learn and work, the clubs have done paintings for the cafeteria, the majority of the halls and the new fine arts wing. In addition to this, the club helps in involv- ing students in school activities such as painting scenery for various dances including the Junior-Senior prom. The club also has submitted various cover designs for the yearbook. The clubs participate in various art festivals and contests. Many members have won prizes in these contests on the local and state level. Much of the members’ success can be attributed to the guidance given to them by their talented sponsors, Mr. Waldo Johnson and Miss Katherine Gardner. 78
