Fifty Blatchley Middle School students from the Art Choral Exploration Program created the poster art for the 2010 Sitka Summer Music Festival. The four-month collaboration resulted in a beautiful oil pastel mosaic, featuring the motifs of cello, music staff, Sitka's Russian Orthodox Cathedral, and the Sitka Rose. This video documents the process.
