Provide for Creativity Art— art n. A skill in performance acquired by experience, study or observation. Ex. oil painting, glassblowing, and photography. Among the more popular classes were glassblowing and photography which were taught by Mr. Don Meyer. Glassblowing was an introductory course on all phases of the artistic and scientific manipulation of molten glass. Some of the more favorite objects blown were swans, large ships and harps. Photography was a general interest course which covered all aspects of black and white film. Students in advanced photography worked with colored film and on advanced projects of their own choice.

Students can really appreciate Room C-5 because hanging on the walls and appearing throughout the area can be seen displays of art projects. The four-year art program, which was set up by Merceda Dietz, introduced the students to a variety of techniques. During the first year they worked on drawing, which included areas of perspective, as well as figure and self-portraits. They also did some painting and worked with color mixing. Crafts such as macrame, copper tooling, wax and leather carving, and some individual projects of their interest occupied most of the time of second year students. Third year art classes got into more advanced work with drawing and crafts, learning to work with new media. The talent of each individual was projected in the various assignments completed during fourth-year art. They worked on projects from areas such as pottery, watercolor and batik dying.
