Wilson Art Aficionados

At the 2017 Saint Louis Art Fair (SLAF), Wilson students were invited to enjoy an authentic curator experience through the SLAF Art Aficionado program. Presented by PNC Bank’s Arts Alive, the program gave our students a fully-funded, art-buying opportunity to choose artwork for permanent display at Wilson School. The effort of our students also leaves a lasting impact on the community by choosing artwork to tour with SLAF’s traveling Public Art Collection. The Art Aficionado program empowered our students to encounter art in a new way, through the team-building, business, presentation, and cultural experiences necessary to collectively research, choose, and display their selections. ​
