3。艺术的魅力——写在我校师生家长书画摄影联展之际 THE
CHARMS OF ARTS: REFLECTIONS ON NWCS ARTS SHOW
欢迎您本周六或下周六光临我校书画摄影展（主校大厅）。近水楼台，在接收作品的过程中，本人翻阅浏览了大部分的参赛作品，被学生们的艺术天赋所折服、所感动。因此，写下了下面的文字与大家分享：同大多数作者的心情一样，我们那酝酿已久的构思终于变成了作品——或书法、或绘画、或图片，心里既有一吐块垒的快感，也有等待大家评判的惶恐，更有得到大家首肯的期待。只要我们的作品能给您以赏心悦目的美感，体悟到艺术的魅力，我们举办这样活动的目的就达到了。
作为参展成员之一，我深深懂得创作的不易，尽管我们的学生们在现阶段更多的是凭借他们的知觉和灵感在进行创作；在备尝思索之艰辛的同时，我们体验更多的是：思维的快乐与精神的充实。
我校不定期举办书画摄影展的目的与其说在于评出高下，倒不如说是在为学生们创造这样一个艺术氛围的同时，检验一下我们的艺术创作水平，鼓励同学们在学好各门功课的同时，培养自己所喜欢的爱好，多才多艺，既高尚脱俗，又斯文儒雅。诚然，参展的作者不可能都成为画家、摄影家、书法家，但是他们（包括你们）都可以通过这样的活动体会如何欣赏绘画、摄影、书法作品，而成为艺术品的鉴赏者、传播者和收藏家。
借此机会，让我们向赵铮老师、王欣老师、周志伟老师、崔兰老师、Jinny Guan Heiskanen老师等致以最衷心的感谢。他们悉心的装裱、耐心细致的工作令人感动。谢谢！

CENTER中国文化艺术节上表演舞蹈、武术等节目，本来是答应学生和家长放学后去那儿观看他们演出、为他们表演助兴的，但到达之后，因去的较迟，只有将车停在较远的露天开放付费的停车场，因车上装有刚刚印刷好的毕业证书、教材、档案、公章、钢印等，犹豫再三，只好放弃原来的初衷和承诺，“说话没算数”。特此致歉。
