Gallery East in the McKinley Arts & Culture Center is proud to host Doral Academy of Northern Nevada in their exhibition “Diverse Dragons Developing Connection, Community & Collaboration Through the Arts.”
Doral Academy of Northern Nevada is a tuition-free public charter school with a focus on rigorous academics and arts integration. With over 950 students in grades K-8 who come from 23 different zip codes and four different counties, their focus is on building community and working together to learn and grow. The Doral Dragons will be exhibiting collaborative works of art with over 40 pieces created by nearly 800 students. Their exhibit, “Diverse Dragons Developing Connection, Community & Collaboration Through the Arts,” will highlight a focus on teamwork and contributing an individual’s talents towards a common goal. Doral’s two full time arts teachers have worked across all grades K-8 to deepen student understanding of art techniques, enhance skills, and develop creativity through each piece.
