Students created vibrant displays to attract buyers during the visual department’s art sale on March 12 during lunch.

During lunch, the land under the Banyan tree commonly referred to as “Freshman Hill” was colorfully decorated with art created by visual students. These works are usually meant for viewing purposes only, but today, the art was for sale. Ranging from t-shirts, to small figurines and stickers, there was a wide variety of pieces to choose from. Visual juniors and seniors spread towels and blankets in the grass, adding snacks and signs to the displays of their personal work.
