Junior Portfolio 3D Design Final Projects 

Mrs Silverman's Junior Portfolio 3D Design students are hard at work on their found object apparel and architectural design projects. After a series of introductory assignments and three-dimensional material investigations, students apply the design thinking process to their chosen project, either a wearable fashion design made out of found materials, or a site-specific architectural design for a client of their choosing incorporating sustainable features.
 
The final projects will be displayed at our upcoming Fine Art Festival student showcase, featuring hundreds of works of art and design from each of our thirteen distinctive art electives on Friday, April 25th from 6-8pm in the Patio.
