Cohoes High School students find creative and cultural fulfillment under the direction of Mrs. Levy and Mr. Lipka of the art department. Stu- dents in the seventh and eighth grades are required to take a basic course in art. Senior high students may elect courses in basic art, graphics, sculp- ture, contemporary painting, oil paint- ing, crafts and mechanical drawing. The highlight of the year for all art groups is the Spring Exhibit - an activity for which they plan all year. In addition, art students undertake various projects to help raise funds for a field trip to a museum. This coming spring they plan to visit the Metropoli- tan in New York City. FACULTY: MRS.
