Ecology & Stewardship Club Partnered with NAHS

Art And Science Come Together For Students

St. Mary’s Dominican High School’s Ecology & Stewardship Club partnered with the National Art Honor Society to express their creativity and support of the Green Light New Orleans water-saving and stormwater management program. Fruits of their labor were ten painted rain barrels with colorful artwork reflecting the New Orleans landscape, including aquatic life, farmers’ markets, rows of houses, and Mardi Gras. Green Light New Orleans is a local nonprofit organization that works on sustainable solutions for the community. One of the solutions to the problems of flooding and subsidence is getting local artists, students, and the community involved in painting rain barrels that are distributed to homes and businesses in the Greater New Orleans area.

Afternoon At The Opera

Junior Classical League (JCL) members, JCL moderator Dr. Wayne Rupp, and Fine Arts Department Chair Brenda Castillo visited the New Orleans Opera and saw the first act of Wagner’s Die Walküre (The Valkyrie) as a part of the New Orleans Opera’s Student Night Out. The Student Night Out performance is free to students and their chaperones in order to promote a love of opera and music. New Orleans has a rich history of opera and is the site of the first opera house in the US.
