 And opens a world of art to high school and middle school students
Pennsylvania College of Art & Design is pleased to present “Mosaic: Mary Borgman and Rudy Gutierrez” on October 2 from 5 to 8 p.m. in PCA&D’s Main Gallery.
Lancaster’s First Friday begins with the Mosaic Project, a multicultural exhibition and educational program for students and families in Lancaster County.
The exhibit, “Mosaic: Mary Borgman and Rudy Gutierrez,” features evocative large-scale portraits drawn with charcoal on Mylar by Borgman, and dynamic paintings by Gutierrez. The show continues through November 27, 2009, at PCA&D.

The Mosaic Project educational component and “after-program”
The educational components of the Mosaic Project will provide hands-on and in-person opportunities for high school and middle school students from two public school districts in Lancaster County (one rural, one urban): School District of Lancaster and Pequea Valley School District.
Through PCA&D’s Mosaic Project, students can appreciate and create art, and also involve a significant adult in the process (parent, uncle, aunt, older sibling, etc.) through PCA&D’s unique “Intergenerational Art” class.
In addition, the Project’s after-program website will further involve these students in sharing their creative experiences – ensuring a continued involvement in and enthusiasm for the visual arts and their own creative abilities.
