a close brush with art

the baao community college and the baao high school students had a close brush with art last week.

these two, were the first schools to take part in the cafe des artes ongoing exhibit entitled: salmo ag berso by fr. nunilon arnold bancaso, jr. or OsacnaB. as a member of the burikbutikan baao, an arts collective made up of five active baao artists, OsacnaB and the group aims to encourage students to engage in visual arts. and as part of the group's program, the cafe des artes gives students the opportunity to see artworks displayed in the gallery.

baao community college art instructor bing alvina said the gallery visit broadened students' horizons. this prompted him to let joyce de los santos, an art teacher of the baao high school, know and encouraged her to bring the fourth year high school art students to the gallery.

"it was a chance for our younger students to see the best artworks of OsacnaB.

"the activities were highly engaging for the age level of our students and allowed them to access complex abstract artworks at their own level. students and teachers really enjoyed the day.

"there is no better way to engage with art than seeing the original works in real life.

burikbutikan baao and cafe des artes strive for a continued longstanding relationship with the baao community college and the baao high school.
