Inner City School Modern Batik Art Exhibition

February 25, 2009 7:34 PM
Posted Date: February 10, 2009
 
 
By the youth of Blessed Mother Teresa Catholic Secondary School, Military Trail Public School, and Willow Park Junior Public School
 
Over the past several months, youth from three inner city schools participated in workshops for Modern Batik art – a unique style of artwork that originated in Indonesia and East Africa. The works produced by these youth showcase the complexity of this cultural artform, as well as the talent and creativity of local young people.
 
In celebration of Black History Month, a selection of the work produced by these youth will be on display at the Scarborough Civic Centre Rotunda from February 17th to 28th, 2009. An opening reception will take place on February 17th, from 7:00 to 9:00pm. Please join us in acknowledging the achievements of these young artists.
