Creating Landscapes: Where Creative Risk-Taking is a Way of Life On July 16th and 17th 2015, final exhibitions, performances, books of student writing, and CDs of original student music conclude our 26th season. As a body of work these examples of student expression clearly demonstrate that our Landscapes’ faculty and staff embody the ability and the courage necessary for activating this very large idea: along the many landscapes of learning, a pathway to understanding can be created for each and every learner. Also demonstrated by this body of student work is that our learners embody the necessary curiosity and imagination to explore and express what rise and fall mean to them. We are all enriched and continually amazed at the depth of understanding and insight present in their songs, dances and stories. Courage and curiosity, ability and imagination—in collaboration these qualities identify Creating Landscapes as the learning opportunity where creative risk-taking is a way of life.
