ArtQuest @ 20! Is This Year’s AQ Theme

AQ began two decades ago with 60 students and just two Arts Specialties - Visual Fine Arts and Multimedia (now divided into Digital Arts and Video Arts) but now has about 540 students and eight different Arts Specialties, four in Visual and four in the Performing Arts. To celebrate being a ripe old 20 years old, this year’s AQ focus will be on the last 20 years of the program’s interdisciplinary themes, reflecting back and also reinterpreting them in a contemporary context. AQ uses a theme each year to connect the various arts and core-related classes and to create an overarching artistic dialogue throughout the program about various topics and ideas, some relevant to a particular time or context, some focused on a specific performing or visual art work, some humorously thoughtful about the human condition, and some a serious investigation of political or social issues. Interpreted in a wide array by teachers and students, and the projects, events, other activities and outcomes generated have been delightfully surprising. Past AQ themes have been: The Other (94-95), The Coexistence of Order & Chaos (95-96), No Theme ? (aka It’s a Mystery!) (96-97), What is Real? Is it Real? (97-98), The War Requiem Project (98-99), The Passage (99-00), World with a View (Bring a Map) (00-01), Child of Our Time (01-02), Revision (02-03), Collective Invention (03-04), Beauty and the Beast (04-05), Atticus (05-06), Patriot Acts (06-07), Where the Wild Things Are (07-08), PROject eARTh (08-09), Rebel With a Cause (09-10), And Now for Something Completely Different! (10-11), We’re Not in Kansas Anymore (11-12), Renaissance (12-13), Toward a More Perfect Union (13-14), and of course, this year is ArtQuest@20 (14-15).

The Hour of Code_
this week_is an opportunity for every student to try computer science for one hour.
During Computer Science Education Week (Dec. 9-15), we're making history and recruiting 10 million to join in and do the Hour of Code.

http://youtu.be/iqz4Ucz33Xg


 

The Hour of Code DECEMBER 9–15, 2013  

The National Writing Project is joining Code.org  to support theHour of Code . The largest initiative of its kind, the Hour of Code is a campaign to recruit 10 million students to try computer science for one hour during Computer Science Education Week (December 9–15). Join the National Writing Project, Microsoft, Google, Apple, Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg, the Boys & Girls Clubs of America, and over 100 other individuals and organizations to make history. Start planning the Hour of Code for your classroom (or school) athttp://hourofcode.com/ .

Calling All Students—Regardless of Age Computer science is foundational for all students today, yet 90% of schools don't teach it. This is a chance to make sure your students will be on the forefront of creating the technology of the future, not just using it, and to prepare them for the 21st Century. Make a difference for your students at http://hourofcode.com/ .

What's the Hour of Code? It's an hour-long introduction to computer science designed to demystify code and show students that everyone can learn the basics. Code.org will provide tutorials that require no prior experience and can be done on a browser, on a smartphone, or even "unplugged." Teachers of all disciplines: please set aside one hour to expose your students to these critical skills.

SONOMA COUNTY MUSEUM : BOB CORNELIS, STUDIO 50 ARTIST EXHIBITION OPENING RECEPTION


Friday January 17, 2014

6:00 PM TO 8:00 PM

Join us for the opening reception for Bob Cornelis' Pop-Up exhibition titled Studio 50 Artists on Friday, January 17 from 6:00 - 8:00 PM. The Plein Air Players will be providing a lively repertoire of classical music.STUDIO 50 is a black and white portrait series appearing for one week at the Museum focusing on visual artists in Sonoma County.  Cornelis photographed the artists in their intimate studio environments, capturing them surrounded by their art and tools and published a companion book with the portraits.

In 1998, Bob Cornelis left the corporate world as a computer programmer and manager and discovered fine art digital printing was beginning to get the traction that would cause it to revolutionize the world of photography. Deciding to follow that trajectory and his passion for photography, he capitalized on his expertise in technology and founded Color Folio, a fine art digital printing studio. Cornelis is an accomplished mixed media artist, embracing the exciting developments that have continued to redefine what it means to be a photographer.

William Erwin "Will" Eisner
(March 6, 1917 – January 3, 2005) was an American cartoonist, writer, and entrepreneur. He was one of the earliest cartoonists to work in the American comic book industry, and his series The Spirit (1940–1952) was noted for its experiments in content and form. In 1978, he popularized the term "graphic novel" with the publication of his book A Contract with God. He was an early contributor to formal comics studies with his book Comics and Sequential Art (1985). The Eisner Award was named in Eisner's honor, and is given to recognize achievements each year in the comics medium; he was one of the three inaugural inductees to the Will Eisner Comic Book Hall of Fame.
