IC NEWSLETTER -
SUMMER 2009
12
In honor of Beirut being chosen the “World Book
Capital 2009”, IC’s Art festival kicked off in May with
the theme: Art Books and Art in Books. Selected
books came alive throughout the campus as
characters and objects from the books were
reproduced from various materials.
Among the features books were Crayon Mine
Cherche Couleurs by Sandra Khalil, Charlie and the
Chocolate Factory by Roald Dahl, Pezzitino by Leo
Lionni, Le Petit Prince by Antoine de Saint-
Exupéry Dodo les Monstres, and the Wizard
of Oz by L. Frank Baum.
Supervised and organized by the head of the
Art Department, Samia Boulad, the Art Festival
exhibits the work of the entire student body. The
Festival was first launched in 1991. A different
theme is chosen every year and involves
preschoolers all the way to secondary school
students. The exhibition remained on display for
a week and was open to all visitors.
