Project Description:
Glen Rock High School’s Interior Design program offers students the opportunity to assess, design, plan and transform an interior space based on specific parameters. Part of the school’s rigorous Fine Arts program, Interior Design seeks to provide students with creative experiences that form both their aesthetic responses and the ability to create. In the past, actual design has been limited to drawings, plans and models.
This grant would allow our students to explore Interior Design through actual implementation of a planned design. Students will work together to assess, plan, budget and transform the old Faculty Room. Guest speakers in the industry will enrich the students’ journey. A learning experience for students that seeks to transform a space for teachers is sure to be transforming for all. Funding would also ensure that the project’s life would extend beyond a single semester, and would allow for future classes to transform additional spaces in the school. The endeavor would also allow for interdisciplinary collaboration, such as Photography – related projects, Engineering & Architecture projects…etc. (the sky’s the limit
YOUR PARTICIPATION IS ESSENTIAL IN WINNING THIS GRANT! We would appreciate you getting the word out to anyone you think could help. I thank you all in advance for your help.
