Lisa Odaffer's class at O'Leary Middle School came alive with a spirited debate on artistic freedom! Students explored big questions like:
✨ Should artists break with tradition?
🌍 Can new artistic ideas benefit society?
⚖️ Do artists have a duty to uphold traditional values?
Taking on the roles of Renaissance artists, politicians, merchants, religious leaders, and scholars, students passionately defended their characters’ viewpoints.
