Project Title: Aluminum Etching
The students etched an aluminum plate to create a sketch which they then
transferred to paper. Each grade nine class spent a morning with the
artist. The finished artwork was displayed in the school library from
April 3rd to April 6th, 2006. The project was displayed at the Confederation Centre of the Arts Gallery from May 15th to June 5th, 2006.
