On May 20, 2009 the Art Department, Tech. Ed. Department, Music Department, and Theater 308 hosted the second annual Art Festival. Members of the schools band opened the festival by walking through the courtyard and the school while playing different songs. The ceramic students throwing clay on the wheel, while having an announcer telling the crowed around the booth how clay is thrown on the wheel. Even the schools custodians joined in on the fun, by making a bowl on the wheel. Theater 308 performed numbers from their last musical, to a very enthusiastic and cheerful crowd. The musical number that Theater 308 preformed looked in top form, even though they have not publicly presented it, since the closing night of the musical. The Tech Ed. Department hosted activities from all different classes including woodworking and welding. Expert students carved a bowl on the laid, while members of the administration looked on. Overall the art festival was a success and hopefully will be a new tradition here at Darien High School.
