Writing Fix: Tribute to an Artist and His/her Work

Curated by ACT

Inspired by both a song (sung by Don McLean) about Van Gogh as well as a poem written by Tupac Shakur, students will be inspired to research an artist with an interesting life and style of work. Students will research the artist they have chosen, highlighting words that really represent the person and his/her art. Students will craft a "found poem" that explores a theme about the artist they have chosen.
