IWA Hosts a successful Mardi Gras Masquerade Auction!

On Saturday, March 29, over 300 guests attended Incarnate Word Academy's annual dinner and auction. The theme for 2014 was "Mardi Gras Masquerade"!

IWA students helped create the festive mask centerpieces, but many guests arrived in their own mysterious mask creations. Guests were treated to a variety of New Orleans-themed dishes which were served at four food stations. Many guests were seen with specially-designed "Mardi Gras Masquerade" hurricane glasses in hand!

The raffles were a big hit - including the delicious King Cake Raffle. In addition to the many baskets and other silent and blackboard auction items, there were 52 oral auction items including trips to Palm Desert, CA and New Orleans, LA.

Take a moment to view the slideshow below for a taste of all the excitement!

IWA Art Students Create Mardi Gras Masterpieces

The IWA 3-Dimensional Art and Introduction to Art classes created Mardi Gras masks to help decorate for the IWA Auction this year. The students viewed a power point slideshow featuring masks from Mardi Gras and Carnival in Venice for inspiration to create their own mask designs. (see pictures below)

They used traditional Mardi Gras paint colors to paint original designs on paper maché masks and then used paper, lace, feathers, pipe cleaners, sequins, and gems to add interest and sparkle to their masks. Students learned to design on a 2-dimensional surface and bring the design to life as a 3-dimensional mask. The girls did a fabulous job using their creativity; each of the 64 masks created by the IWA art students is a one-of-a-kind work of art! The masks will be displayed in the centerpieces on the tables at the Auction on March 29th.
