Eighth graders recently started a student-run art club, which meets weekly on Mondays in room 234 at lunch. The club allows students to take their lunch period to work collaboratively in various mediums and discuss their artistic interests with peers. The club started with colored pencil sketches of cartoons that depict current political events. At Washington Latin, student-run clubs allow children a chance to share their interests, passions, and hobbies with peers during lunchtime and after school sessions, with the help and guidance of a faculty advisor. The club will publish an art magazine in the spring depicting favorite selected works from the year.
