There are so many fun and exciting clubs this year at Nazareth Area Middle School but one that definitely stands out is Art Club! From the second you walk through the doors to the art room you are surrounded by so many unique projects. For example; there are intricate portraits of skeletons’ hands, colorful masquerade masks, and plastered molds of the students’ arms. If you thought the projects couldn’t get any more interesting, you are mistaken.
Mr. Kroll, the art teacher, has been in charge of Art Club for 10 years. Not only is he an excellent teacher, but he is a phenomenal artist! All the students who joined art club this year have been having a blast! “There are so many fun things to do,” says Hannah Frame. A unique project that we have recently done involved color and using pudding as a substitute for paint! That was an obvious favorite. Everyone is ecstatic about the newest project, painting 3 different rocks. One rock will have flowers, another will have sketching and painted lizards, and the last rock will be turned into a hatching dragon egg!
Art Club isn’t just about doing projects. “My favorite thing about Art Club is being able to interact with some of my friends on different teams,” says Sara Tanzosh. Crystal Lussl says her favorite part of Art Club is, “expressing art in a creative way.” The talent level in Art Club is very high! All the projects are incredibly detailed and amazing! Mr.Kroll’s talent and eye for art has definitely rubbed off on his students. Fantastic, amazing, creative, exciting and most of all fun are what the students say about Art Club, and they are truly right!
