Camp Beckett in Western Mass. – Here We Come!

tshirtMost of our Lower Elementary students packed up their sleeping bags and pillows and boarded a very fancy bus for a two night overnight trip. Students and staff were very excited for the next couple of days of adventure! Thanks to Friends of Tobin who again sponsored this amazing trip for our 4th and 5th graders! Hear all about these adventures in next week's Weekly.

Artist Statement:
My screen printed work focuses on transparency and color interaction, and personal visual elements that reference the natural, mathematical and spiritual worlds. My compositions are ethereal, floating and full of movement. The equations are written originally by my grandfather, who is a physicist and mathematician in Kiev, Ukraine, and are juxtaposed against color nebulae and dot clusters. In their current form, they lose their mathematical meaning, yet evoke the emotional and spiritual state of their author.
