Student comments:
“I think that this program played an important role in
my life. We learned to express ourselves without feeling ashamed
of who we are or what we feel. I personally learned that everybody
can be an artist that transmits a message or a story.”
NFA student
“The people you meet are really cool and interesting.
It’s a good way to build confidence in personal skills.”
Bloomfield student
“If students want to learn about writing & photography
and how to utilize them together, then this is a great opportunity.
It is also good for the brave souls who want to cross over and
meet new people from another school.” Griswold student
“It was really cool to see my picture/poem put up on the
wall, and everyone’s reaction to it. Good reviews on my
skills with Photoshop and the light, slightly satirical poem
I wrote felt good and I would really like to do it again.”
Griswold student
“When I first saw my writing on the big wall I felt overwhelmed
with happiness because it made me feel like I did something
that made a difference to be up on that wall. Everyone read
how I felt and about my emotions. Yes, I would recommend this
to the newcomers …” NFA student
“I think people should participate in this project because
it allows an individual to release the writer in them. This
gives opportunity to a person who feels as though they are misunderstood
and unrealized to be fulfilled.” NFA student
“The greatest learning I have processed through my head
was the different possibility of art and different art perceptions.
I love it! Plus, I like meeting new people, so that was a blast.
If you like meeting new people with similar interests, this
is a perfect opportunity.” Bloomfield student
