Welcome to my online art classroom! My name is Michelle Harrell and I teach art at Southeast Raleigh Magnet High School. I created this web-site for my students, my National Art Honor Society, bulldog parents for ways they can help the Fine Art Department, and other art teachers. Read my art teacher blog below (only entries from the last 6 months are kept) or explore the many individual web-pages that are linked on both the left and right.

Art E-pal Web-site Posted 3/6/09 In March, we had a visit from two art teachers from the British Council who were here to gather ideas to take back to Great Britain. We exchanged a ton of ideas including a collaboration between our two schools. For my Art I students´ mid-terms, they are developing their profiles on our new Art E-pals wiki. After spring break, Mrs. Aker´s art students will join us. We hope our friends from across the `pond´ will be online to exchange artwork soon.
Summer Art Camps and Workshops Posted 2/2/09 Now is the time to register for Summer Art Camps and Workshops. Continue to check the Art Bulletin Board outside room 405 for new information.
Leadership study through African Art Posted 12/10/08 We had a WONDERFUL exchange between Mary Phillips High School and my 2nd period Art I class. See photos and complete details!
Upcoming Art Shows Posted 12/10/08- Updated 12/17/08 There are many shows that we are currently preparing artwork to enter immediately when we return from Winter Break. This includes Scholastics, Raleigh Women's Club, Local Color Student Art Show, and Pieces of Gold. I have already provided opportunities to matt work afterschool- e-mail me if you´re interested in setting up another matting session. I will provide the matt board and show them how to do it. If they would like to exhibit art but prefer having it matted professionally (this can be pricey sometimes), they are welcome to still enter it. Click here for art show details.
Artspace field trip Posted 12/8/08 We had a wonderful time interviewing artist and visiting the art galleries in Moore Square on Friday 12/5. I only wish students had more time in the semester with me to develop ideas they came up with from seeing professional artwork in person. Special thanks to Ms. Mills, Ms. Powell, Ms. Alstadt, and SRMHS Alumnae Suzanne Tisdell for chaperoning! Click on thumb-nails for full size images.
