Studio Art Excursion

Our Year 11 and 12 Studio Art students enjoyed a day at the Art Gallery of Ballarat recently to view the folios of Year 12 regional students who completed the subject last year.

The exhibition includes student visual art diaries and artworks selected by the gallery for it’s annual Next Gen exhibition.

Each year, CRC Melton Year 12 Studio Arts student can apply to be part of the exhibition. Many of our past students have had the great honour of being selected to exhibit their work.

During the excursion, students also viewed several other exhibitions, including the gallery’s permanent collection. Students are expected to write notes and participate in group discussions during the presentation and viewings. This helps them prepare for School Assessed Coursework (SACs) and exams and to develop their folio.

Our next excursion will be to Geelong Gallery in Term 3, where the focus will be on Arts Industry Practice.
