Muse Magazine Launch

Cranbrook is excited to announce the launch of an innovative new arts magazine called Muse, designed to showcase the extraordinary artistic talents and creativity of Cranbrook students. The magazine captures the vibrant and diverse artistic landscape of our school community. Muse features a variety of content including articles on contemporary artists, as well as thoughtful retrospective criticism of significant films from 2022. This range of artistic passions caters to a wide array of interests, making it an essential read for anyone passionate about the arts.

One of the magazine’s highlights is its extensive showcase of student artwork. The magazine includes stunning photography, intricate sculptures, and beautiful prints, all created by our talented students. Specifically, it features photography from the Vivid series by our gifted Year 11 Photography class, the imaginative ceramic characters crafted by the Year 10 students, and the impressive lino-prints produced by Year 8. This diverse collection not only celebrates the artistic achievements of our students but also underscores the depth and breadth of our arts curriculum.

At Muse, we believe it is crucial to recognise and celebrate the dedication, hard work, and creativity of our students. This publication is entirely student-written, edited, and designed, reflecting the true spirit of collaboration and passion for the arts within our school. By encouraging artistic expression and critical thought, Muse aims to foster a culture of creativity and innovation, which is especially important in our increasingly automated world.

We are thrilled to invite students and staff to join us for the Muse launch event, Thursday 25 July, lunchtime at Camelia Court. The Muse team will be handing out copies of the inaugural edition of the magazine. 

This event is a fantastic opportunity for students, particularly those in Year 8 and 10 who are approaching subject selection, to learn more about the exciting developments and opportunities within the Visual Arts program at Cranbrook. Whether you have questions about the curriculum, are curious about the projects and activities, or simply want to immerse yourself in the creative atmosphere, we encourage you to come along and engage with the Muse team. We hope to see you there and look forward to sharing the incredible artistic talents of our students with the entire Cranbrook community.

Don’t miss out on this exciting launch event – see you on Thursday, first week of Term 3 at Camelia Court!
