ART CLUB FAQs
(frequently asked questions):

What is Art Club?
Art Club is an extracurricular Art Advocacy club. Members meet once a week beginning in October for one (or more) hour(s) to set agendas and art related projects, make art or crafts for fundraising events or select school functions, socialize with other members, listen to music, learn about the importance of advocating -"talking up" art. Some come in with specific art projects from class or from home while others simply want to talk about art ideas or need art help from other students. Still others join because they visited once with a friend and enjoyed being in the art room.

When do you meet?
We meet on Wednesdays after school, 2:45- 3:45 PM.

What if I am active in a sport and cannot attend some meetings?
You can still join us off-season or when your team does not meet.

Who is eligible?
Any BHS student can join, even if one is not enrolled in art classes. Some, in fact, join because they cannot fit art into their schedules but still want to make art during the week.

Are there set Art Club activities?
We do not have specific week-to-week projects. The "open-studio" environment allows students to come in and work on something on their own or to ask others for art help. We also are raising money for an art scholarship this year.

How do I join?
Come by the art room A-13 (basement level below House 1) during an Art Club meeting. Talk to Mrs. Poruczynski, BHS Art Club Advisor.

Tell me more about the Art Club Scholarship...
Part of our proceeds from the holiday fund-raisers help raise money towards an annual senior art scholarship. Any BHS senior who plans to major in the fine or applied arts (i.e.. architecture, graphic arts, fine arts, etc.) can apply for this scholarship.
