Projecting Portland. Displayed in the World Trade Center, this art piece projects shapes of Portland onto the wall around it. The title of the piece is, “A Lamp to Read Seuss By,” by Richard Miner. It took nearly 200 hours to create. Each piece of the lamp shade has an image from Portland. Bridges, animals, bikes, and more can all be seen rotating around. “Each of the polygons is irregular and unique,” Miner said. “Theres only one way they will tie together to make the ball shape.”

Throwing on the wheel, Henry Dillingham practices his patience while learning how to throw. Henry is a teacher aid in fourth period AP 3D-Design. After helping out around the classroom, he decided to give the wheel a try. With patience, practice and a little assistance, Henry was able to successfully sculpt his first bowl. “It’s hard to pick up on,” Henry said. “Once Justin [Rademacher] helped me center it, I started to really enjoy it.”

 At the main table, student leaders share this dessert, allowing students to experience a small part of this vast culture. This photo captures one of the very first sales of the day at the Lunar New Year Event that took place in the library and was hosted by Model UN and the Affinity Club. At the event they had chosen to share a Singaporean dessert and this was one of the many students who had purchased one. Gretchen Bertram, teacher, helped organize the event. “One of the countries is Singapore,” Bertram said. “They wanted to highlight that and so the students found a bakery in Portland that made a special Singaporean desserts.”
