“Life is art. Art is life. I never separate it.” – Ai Weiwei

Usually May is Music month throughout NZ. But this year the Greymouth High School Arts Department has decided to celebrate all the Arts throughout the month. Events offered will range from weekly arts quizzes to house haka learning sessions; from Mural design competitions with the winning designs being painted by students during the 2050 program in term 4; to band performances, dance lessons, theatre sports, workshops and the list goes on.

The range of events will be advertised each week in the student notices and advertised on posters around the Art, Music and Drama rooms.
