The exchane students will be attending classes for about 5-6 days during that 2-week range. Two of their teachers, Brigitte Esquenet and Marie-Noëlle Jullien, will accompany the French exchange students and observe some of our classes. During the two weeks, the group will live with their American host families, attend classes and travel the east coast.

Lauren Wilson '20 Showcased at Delaware Art Exhibit

The Delaware Fun-A-Day is a free, all-ages, all skill sets & experience, non-juried, community-centric art project. Participants choose a project and produce one piece of artwork every day for the entire month of March. The resulting pieces create a narrative outlining each artist’s journey throughout the month. Archmere sophomore Lauren Wilson participated in the project last month, creating 30 watercolor portraits that were shown in the exhibit at the Delaware Contemporary this past weekend.

Lauren was one of almost 200 participants who made a small piece of art every day in the month of March. Close to 1,000 people viewed the art at the Delaware Contemporary during the Delaware Fun-A-Day main event April 6 - 8.
