Students in the high school's spring 2013-14 3-D Design class created a temporary exhibition of conceptual public art for the final week of school. The works ranged in subject matter and materials. As a requirement of the assignment, all materials must have been borrowed, donated, or recycled (no new materials were purchased specifically for the exhibit). The exhibit, staged at various locations around the school, ran through June 11, 2014. Upon the close of the exhibition, all materials were returned, recycled, or re-purposed.
