Especial to Kennebec JournaD
Vassalboro, Maine, June 21-One
of the most significant additions to
the Oak Grove curriculum for the
coming year, is the installat ton Of a
strong art department. Every girl
in school will receive weekly in
struction. while three advanced
courses will be open to girls of tall
ent, The head of the new depart
ment is Miss Margaret Holmes of
New Jersey, who comes to organize
this work with excellent qualitica-
tons. After graduating from George
School, Miss Holmes entered
Swarthmore College and-in each in
stitution distinguished herself for
her artistic talent. For the last
three years Miss Holmes has been
a student in the Philadelphia School
of Art, where she has won many
honors. and was one of the two
highest ranking pupils in the Art
School. Miss Holmes is a member of
the honorary art fraternity, Delta
Sigma Theta. A special tribute to
her talent in the Art School was
her promotion into the life class IN
advance of all others in that course.
Besides the high place accorded Miss
Holmes by all the masters under
Daily Kennebec journal. [microfilm reel] (Augusta, Me.) 1870-1975, 1926-06-22

whom she has studied, she possesses
a charming simplicity and con-
tagious enthusiasm for her work.
Since her election to the position at
Oak Grove early in the spring, Miss
Holmes has devoted great deal Of
time to studying the courses In art
that are given in the finest schools
for girls in Pennsylvania and New
Jersey, and she has been gathering a
select group of models for her new
studio at Oak Grove. Miss Holmes
Is passing her summer studying the
work of the best art museums in
Philadelphia. New York, Washington
and Chicago. During the month
Miss Holmes Is in Chicago, she will
do some advanced work there under
special masters at the Academy Of
Fine Arts. and she will take new
course there in "Intervalic Guild
ance", which is a development Of the
Exposition Of Modern Art in Paris.
The courses which Miss Holmes
will offer at Oak Grove are in four
distinct groups. The beginners
class will recognize the urge to
create which is in every child, and
as a foundation and guidance for eff
fective self expression, each girl
will be taught knowledge of color
relations and color harmonies. as
well as the theory of design and the
basic principles which underlie all
artistic expression. After many ex-
periments in color which will In
clude such imaginative work as
original designs for stained glass
windows and decorative effects;
each pupil will use charcoal as an
other medium in drawing from casts
and the beautiful models of the ages.
The aim of this first course is to
develop an appreciation of proper
ton, correct definition of light and
shade, and facility in handling the
medium. In order to acquire both
an appreciation Of form and a sense
of the third dimension the pupil will
model in clay. By spring the girls
will be taught to sketch from nature
both in pencil and in color.
The three courses for advanced or
talented pupils will be in Nature
Study, Design, and Advanced Draw
ing. The class in Nature Study
gives the pupil the opportunity for
exploring under guidance, the in
exhaustible supply of decorative
forms to be found in the vegetable
and animal Kingdoms. The course
in design is an amplification of the
theoretical work of the beginners.
Practice will be gained through
original work which will include the
making of posters and will culmi-
nate in big design that is the re-
suit of the years work and requires
some research. The Advanced
Drawing class will teach a know
ledge of structure as well as some
technique. Special emphasis will be
