ARTiculate 2024
Good Shepherd Lutheran College's annual Arts & Design showcase, ARTiculate, brought together students, parents, and staff for a vibrant evening of creativity, achievement, and community spirit. The showcase was filled with great performances, inspiring artwork, and mouthwatering food crafted by the Year 10 Food Technology students.
The evening kicked off with an exhibition that transformed the campus into a vibrant gallery of student work. Attendees were treated to a stunning array of projects from students of all year levels, including intricate artworks, innovative design pieces, woodworking projects, 3D printing, digital music compositions, textile creations, pottery, and much more. The showcase truly highlighted the incredible diversity of artistic expression nurtured at Good Shepherd Lutheran College.
This year’s People’s Choice Award saw an unprecedented number of votes, reflecting the community’s enthusiasm and support. The competition was incredibly close, leading to a remarkable outcome: two first-place awardees and two runners-up. The winners of the 2024 ARTiculate People’s Choice Awards, in a tie for first place, are:
• Doug, for his exceptional ceramic tea set.
• Madeline, for her striking artwork of famous faces.
Runners-up were:
• Sophie, for her beautifully rendered watercolour landscape.
• Tiger, for her thought-provoking circular pencil artwork, In the Eye of the Beholder.
After exploring the exhibits, students, families, friends, and staff gathered in the chapel for the highlight of the evening: a formal awards presentation and live performances. The ceremony celebrated students who had excelled in various disciplines within the arts and design, recognising their consistent effort, dedication and excellence. Guests were also treated to live music and dance performances, each a testament to the students’ skill and enthusiasm.
A heartfelt thanks goes to our dedicated staff members who brought this event to life, from coordinating exhibits to supporting students throughout their creative journeys. We’re also grateful to the families whose encouragement fuels our students’ drive to explore, create, and excel in the arts.
ARTiculate was a joyous celebration of our students’ hard work, creativity, and love for the arts. Congratulations to all the performers, artists, designers, awardees, and their families for their dedication and support. We look forward to seeing the incredible work that next year’s showcase will undoubtedly bring!
