From the youngest creators in the Junior School to the accomplished artists in the Senior Years, we celebrated all of the incredible artistic and creative pursuits that set MLC School girls apart.<\/p>\n<p class=\"x_MsoNormal\">This year&#8217;s theme, &#8216;Step Right Up&#8217;, celebrated the open-mindedness, and curiosity that drive artistic exploration, encouraging students to take creative risks, embrace the unexpected, and showcase their talents with boldness and flair, much like the courage it takes to take risks. Just like at a carnival, there was something different and exciting around every corner, with each artwork offering a chance to engage with something new.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"x_MsoNormal\">From textiles tote bags to surrealist ceramic works, the dedication and creativity of the students was displayed, allowing all to experience the imagination, innovation, and skill that define our their work. Live performances from our talented music students added atmosphere to the evening, making the event a true celebration of creativity in all its forms.<\/p>\n<p class=\"x_MsoNormal\">A big thank you to the Art and TAS departments for aiding students in their artmaking practices and allowing the night to come together so beautifully.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>&#8211; Eve (Year 12)<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/em>Visual Arts Captain<\/p>\n<p><em>Click on gallery to view full images<\/em><\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-5165 gallery-columns-4 gallery-size-medium'>\n<figure class='gallery-item link-'>\n<div class='gallery-icon'>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/51\/2025\/09\/CL21689.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightcase:1:slideshow\" title=\"\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/51\/2025\/09\/CL21689-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<div class='gallery-item__overlay d-flex justify-content-center align-items-center'><span class='fal fa-plus fa-2x'><\/span><\/div><\/figure>\n<figure class='gallery-item link-'>\n<div class='gallery-icon'>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/51\/2025\/09\/CL21705.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightcase:1:slideshow\" title=\"\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/51\/2025\/09\/CL21705-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<div class='gallery-item__overlay d-flex justify-content-center align-items-center'><span class='fal fa-plus fa-2x'><\/span><\/div><\/figure>\n<figure class='gallery-item link-'>\n<div class='gallery-icon'>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/51\/2025\/09\/CL21713.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightcase:1:slideshow\" title=\"\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/51\/2025\/09\/CL21713-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<div class='gallery-item__overlay d-flex justify-content-center align-items-center'><span class='fal fa-plus fa-2x'><\/span><\/div><\/figure>\n<figure class='gallery-item link-'>\n<div class='gallery-icon'>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/51\/2025\/09\/CL21764.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightcase:1:slideshow\" title=\"\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/51\/2025\/09\/CL21764-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<div class='gallery-item__overlay d-flex justify-content-center align-items-center'><span class='fal fa-plus fa-2x'><\/span><\/div><\/figure>\n<figure class='gallery-item link-'>\n<div class='gallery-icon'>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/51\/2025\/09\/CL21800.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightcase:1:slideshow\" title=\"\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/51\/2025\/09\/CL21800-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<div class='gallery-item__overlay d-flex justify-content-center align-items-center'><span class='fal fa-plus fa-2x'><\/span><\/div><\/figure>\n<figure class='gallery-item link-'>\n<div class='gallery-icon'>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/51\/2025\/09\/CL21812.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightcase:1:slideshow\" title=\"\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/51\/2025\/09\/CL21812-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<div class='gallery-item__overlay d-flex justify-content-center align-items-center'><span class='fal fa-plus fa-2x'><\/span><\/div><\/figure>\n<figure class='gallery-item link-'>\n<div class='gallery-icon'>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/51\/2025\/09\/CL21872.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightcase:1:slideshow\" title=\"\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/51\/2025\/09\/CL21872-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<div class='gallery-item__overlay d-flex justify-content-center align-items-center'><span class='fal fa-plus fa-2x'><\/span><\/div><\/figure>\n<figure class='gallery-item link-'>\n<div class='gallery-icon'>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/51\/2025\/09\/CL22206.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightcase:1:slideshow\" title=\"\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/51\/2025\/09\/CL22206-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<div class='gallery-item__overlay d-flex justify-content-center align-items-center'><span class='fal fa-plus fa-2x'><\/span><\/div><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MLC School\u2019s annual arts festival, Illuminate 2025 transformed the Senior Centre into a carnival of colour and creativity, displaying Design and Technology, Visual Arts, Food Technology, Textiles and Multimedia works.
