"Portrait Suitcases" by 21st Century Students

Students in my 21st Century Class at Cedar Shoals just completed a mixed-media project
entitled, "Portrait Suitcases". The project was inspired by George Davidson, a local Athens
artist, who believes each of us has a unique journey in life. Students' "suitcases" are made
from cigar boxes from the International Cigar Company. They chronicled the story of their
lives using a variety of items...charms, pictures, jewelry...items that had a special
meaning. Take a peek at this creative journey...
