Thanks to a generous grant from the South Pasadena Educational Foundation (SPEF), Ms. Rouzanna Berberian, Ms. Debbie Mogel, and Ms. Erin Kanner worked together to create this cross-curricular opportunity for their classes.

Following an in-depth lesson created by Ms. Berberian about Fauvism, students in both classes used tracing paper and oil pastels to turn black and white photos from the AP students into colorful Fauvist-inspired works of their own.

After learning about these artists together, students in both classes visited the museum to see the works they studied in person. The students’ artwork will be displayed in the SPHS library to share with the community.

Go, Tigers!
