A group of 22 Art Club members experienced an all day Arts Festival in Clarendon Oct. 21.

The Les Beaux Arts Club supplied a day devoted to passionate art students who could learn more  about art and gain  insight on how to improve their skills. The fine arts day consisted of three mini lectures on various types of art, such as pottery, painting and lithographing.  Students were also given guided tours of the gallery and were allowed to visit the artists at work in their studios.

“I signed up to go on this art trip to get inspiration,” sophomore Christian Gil said.

Gil is an active Art Club member and participated in the Clarendon Arts Festival. Students like Gil learned to ways to interpret art in a new and unique fashion.

“I learned not to focus, but just let the picture be,” Gil said. “Imperfections can make art really beautiful.”

Rafael Canizares-Yunez was a speaker who told the students  to go with the flow of their art work and not to be concerned or stressed over the outcome. Each artist encouraged students to follow their dreams and see art beyond the normal boundaries.
