Farhan’s Frequency:The Carnegie Art Museum Program, TAC
Written by Farhan Ahmed, The Eagle Senior Columnist
During every school year from 6th grade until 9th grade, I have been attending a program called the Art Connection (TAC). My 5th grade art teacher introduced this to me after she learned that I have a talent in art and that I am very much seeking to capture more art forms. I have been limited to only drawing sceneries and making basic human figures. After having experience from this program, my drawing skills developed to drawing real human features and figures, and also, I am now able to not only make sceneries, but make sculpture of my art. In other words, I have learned to make things come to life. Thus, the program offered me great talents. So, therefore, it is very beneficial to creative people.
The Carnegie Art Museum’s program of the Art Connection provides an opportunity to both learn and create art. I have seen people who go there who has never drawn a picture out of their own interest, so there is no requirement of being skilled. Located within the museum, it allows the students to roam around the whole place as long as they want and bring their family for a free visit as long as they are attending the program. This can be very opportunistic because it broadens one person’s view and creativity. Personally, as I mentioned before, it allowed me to advance my main capability, drawing anime.
Also, despite art related beneficial factors, you can also make many friend who think and view the world just as you do, as well as challenge your art that which you thought was the best. At first, I always wanted to belief that my work could never compete with anyone else’s until I went here and saw that some students were much more advanced. I did surpass them drastically later; however, I did happen to make many “artistic” friends there.
