Art I HE Art Department has done some things otlier than regular class work during the past school year. Among other things accom- plished the Art Service Club has done its part to radiate the art spirit and has been the source of ideas for various social functions, both in the school and the community. The Annual Art Carnival was a marked artistic success. The predomination of original creations in the way of beautiful costumes was an unusual feature of success. The organization of the Provo and Utah County Art Association was ac- complished through the initiative of this department and a very successful exhibition of paintings was held in the Art Gallery. The scenery painting, costume designing and stage settings of the Pilgrim Tercentenary opera Priscilla presented by the Music Department, was done in the Department. The educative influence of the Art Department has been felt throughout the whole Church in the form of art pageantry. Ideas and outlines have been sent out and reports of successful productions have been received in return. The pageants written have been generally of a religious nature and have there- fore reflected the spirit and mission of the school. Much enthusiasm has been shown by the regular students who have de- veloped well up to the standard of the courses. Creative expression which is the aim of art has been the watch word.
