The After School Program curriculum is planned quarterly and is connected to the permanent and <br />special one-time exhibits at Bowers. For example, during the special exhibit Trilogy of Glass work: <br />Ancient Rome, Chihuly, Yang, children explored methods of glassmaking, glassblowing, and lost <br />wax casting. They toured the exhibit; visited a glass artist in his studio at Santa Ana College, had 3 <br />lectures by an art historian on ancient Rome. Internationally-known glassblower John Barber <br />hosted the students in his Laguna Beach studio. Each student was given a small glass egg to paint; <br />John then blew into the shape of the student's choice. This glass art will be displayed at the end- <br />of-the-quarter Family Night art exhibition. Similar curriculum development accompanies all the <br />special exhibits at Bowers: Remington, Russell and the Language of Western Art and (currently) <br />The Holy Land: David Roberts, Dead Sea Scrolls, & the House of David Inscription. <br />. 4 Family Night exhibitions and performances are held at the end of each quarter.
