FACULTY STUDENT ART SHOW: Student art is presented alongside the work of their teachers in this annual exhibition at the West Windsor Arts Council. Teacher Anne Kullaf’s “Still Life with Radishes,” above, is shown here with “The Lost Cheetah,” below, a pastel by 5-year-old student Sohil Chandhok. The show runs through March 1.

Students of all ages go to the West Windsor Arts Center to expand their knowledge and experiment with art and creativity. Whether they are adults or children, they take classes in order to try something new or hone their skills by learning from teaching artists in the region. Classes are offered in many artistic media including painting, drawing, and sculpting as well as fashion design, photography, and the literary and performing arts. The annual Faculty Student Show aims to provide the experience of submitting and preparing their work for a professional exhibition as well.

Running through March 1, the West Windsor Arts Council presents student art exhibited alongside the work of their teachers in this year’s Faculty Student Show. Featuring over 50 pieces of art, the show represents the hard work and talent of the WWAC community.

“The students’ outstanding artwork in the show represents the quality of our teaching artists,” says Richard Robinson, program manager at West Windsor Arts Center. “I am very proud of all our teaching artists and their ability to guide our students, no matter the students’ level of experience, through the creative process.”
