Summer Project---Cultural Event



Summer Project---Cultural Event

1. Create a display, model, diorama, video, etc..., and make an "AP Summer Experience Museum Exhibit" for Back to School Knight. The display will be set up to showcase how you spent your summer and how you are becoming a socially/culturally responsible and aware citizen.

2. Attend a cultural event: Art of course is in the eyes of the beholder. Anything from the Natural History Museum, to a summer under the stars event at Victoria Gardens can be counted for this activity. You can go to any kind of play, car show, museum, cultural event, etc. In order to receive credit you must bring the ticket or brochure from the event you attended. This means, you must bring proof of some kind that you attended the event (A printed picture of you at the event, a souvenir from the location, a ticket, pamphlet, handout, etc.). The proof must be something physical that I can hold in my hand. Don’t be afraid to attend an extra event or two.

3. A concert performed by a modern performer (Drake, 2-Chainz, Sosa, ChiefKef, etc.) is not acceptable, neither is simply standing on the Golden Gate Bridge.
