Video of Summer Arts Academy duct tape fashion show!


Check out our video of the 2012 Summer Arts Academy duct tape fashion show from June 22! The theme was "Hollywood Movies" and the costumes (and performances) were awesome!

After the fashion show, the 68 Horry County middle and high school students exhibited over 300 pieces of artwork at the Bryan Gallery. The artwork included weaving, still-life painting, sculptures made entirely out of natural objects found on campus, stop-motion photography, drawing, papier-mache sculptures, graffiti and much, much more.


Students experienced an intensive schedule of five different art classes a day, from 8:30 a.m. until 9 p.m. during the summer camp. They also had the chance to build sand sculptures at Myrtle Beach State Park.

Summer Arts Exhibit Tomorrow!

The students at CCU's Summer Arts Academy 2012 have been hard at work getting ready for the big exhibit on Friday, June 22! Come check out all the impressive work created by these local middle and high school students.

Students have been working on everything from weaving, to still-life painting, to sculptures made entirely out of natural objects found on campus. Students have spent the last 10 days in an intensive schedule of five different art classes a day, from 8:30 a.m. until 9 p.m., and we can't wait to show off their hard work. It is looking like this year's artwork is the best yet!

And,of course, the show can't begin without the annual duct tape fashion show. This year's theme is "Hollywood Movies." You can see a video of last year's show here.

The show starts in the courtyard of the Edwards Building at CCU at 11 a.m. on Friday, June 22. The exhibit is open in the Bryan Gallery until 1 p.m. We look forward to seeing you there!
