Oranjestad – The final showcase of Art Rules Aruba 6, produced a tremendous four-hour spectacle which took off with live DJ mixing, theatrical performances, poetry, music, and culminated with a dance production interspersed with creative media, photography, and spiced up with the offerings of the culinary arts students.
Over 100 local teens participated in this year’s Master Edition of Art Rules Aruba 6, produced by twin sisters Ira & Ayra Kip of the Pancake Gallery Foundation. They experienced intense two weeks of workshops in various disciplines such as Creative Writing, Creative Media, Dance, Theater, Music & Performance, DJ and Culinary Arts.
Art Rules Aruba thanked parents and private sector sponsors, spearheaded by RBC Royal Bank, for their contributions which allowed kids to spread their artistic wings and practice self expression, creativity and finding their own voice.
In the packed makeshift auditorium on Wilhelminastraat, at the annex of the Rietveld Art academy, audiences were treated to a series of intelligent and surprisingly, deep and thought-provoking performances by exuberant and excited students, proud of their shared creative journey.
Congratulation, to the crew of international and local teachers who skillfully developed Aruba’s talented youth and inspired them to rise to an impressive level of originality and professionalism.
