Stealing Like Artists #WeAreDGN #99Learns

Today was our opportunity to work collaboratively in all curricular Music and Visual Art courses to make connections to Austin Kleon's "Steal Like An Artist," which is DGN's One-Book-One-School selection for this  year. The choir students had huge creative successes in reinventing our North High Alma Mater, and afterwards  presented their music, poetry, visual and performance art!
