Darlington welcomes the holidays with the 41st Annual Service of Lessons & Carols. Sponsored by the Darlington "Y" Cabinet, the service is led primarily by members of the student body and features vocal and instrumental performances by students.
Students in the advanced studio classes created nature drawings using conté crayons, a material named after Nicolas-Jacques Conté, the French scientist who invented this medium in the late 18th century.
In creating these works, students in the Art 1 class were observing contours and values and making design choices as they painted with India Ink. By reducing photographs to purely black or white, they have created a visually interesting graphic. Future galleries will showcase the same images using a subjective color palette.
Congratulations to Kate Willerson ('29), baritone saxophone; Raven Whitner ('29), drum set; and Benson Wei ('29), piano, for being selected for the GMEA District 7 Middle School Honors Jazz Band. We also congratulate Will Bowerman ('27), trumpet, who made the High School Honors Jazz Band after his audition in early October.
At the virtual fall 2024 awards ceremony for the Georgia Scholastic Press Association (GSPA), Darlington's Jabberwokk yearbook earned the All-Georgia distinction, distinguishing the yearbook as the best in the state. The Inkslinger literary magazine was also recognized, earning a Superior rating, improving on its 2023 Excellent designation and winning a near-perfect score in the critiquing process.
Communication Arts students attended the JEA/NPSA National Convention in Philadelphia, where they expanded their view on student journalism and learned more about yearbook best practices through sessions and workshops.
Our Upper School Band applauds Will Bowerman for making this year’s District VII High School Honors Jazz Band. A sophomore day student who has been playing trumpet in Darlington’s band program since fourth grade, he is the first Darlington band member to make this honors band at the high school level.
In this episode, Director of Fine Arts Kim Tunnell talks with senior Mily James, sixth-grader Andrew Herren, and Lee (Taylor) Morris ('07, LD '24) about the fine arts department's season of discovery this fall, including recent Discover Days, concerts, and the fall play.
