Many of you will recall the stunning large-scale black & white portraits that were part of the OS22 Final Show. The artist, Peter Terwilliger, is now an undergraduate at Massachusetts College of Art, where he received a full merit scholarship. Recently, he happened to mention to me in an email that he is trying to purchase a camera for his work, in particular, a Mamiya 7. As a photographer I understand that longing for a piece of equipment that will make it possible to do the work that is so important to you. I thought that maybe Oxbow could help. This is not a request that I put out there lightly. Peter is a serious student of the arts and deserves every opportunity to realize his vision. I’m hoping that maybe someone in the Oxbow community can help him obtain this camera. I’m sure that in his hands it will be much more than just a camera. Email us if you can help mail@oxbowschool.org

Oxbow forced me to create, and by creating, I established foundation for my thought.

— Jamie Roux, Spring 2003

It's been a whirlwind week, but also a time when I sang the praises of Oxbow to my colleagues. I've been thinking much about how Oxbow is an exemplar of true education. That art centers the curriculum is hardly surprising, and for those of us who work within the traditional educational mold Oxbow offers a gold standard of focused project based learning. Beyond the school's approach to immersive experience are the intangibles which make Oxbow different. The sense of community and of working together, even as each student retained their strong individual presence is palpable. The feeling of warmth and trust between the adults and the nearly adults in the Oxbow community could be felt throughout the campus. The openness of the architecture and interconnectedness of the three studios in themselves speak of the Oxbow philosophy and identity. More than form follows function, the physical attributes of Oxbow have a distinct warmth and invite exploration.

I'm sure that the ongoing challenges of leading and reinventing your school might sometimes keep you from having the time to see Oxbow with the fresh eyes of a visitor, but your steady presence and vision are really visible in every detail. Thank you for inviting me to one of the most profound experiences in my career.

— Ken Rush, Visual Arts Department, Packer Collegiate Institute

Our daughter graduated summa cum laude from NYU with a double major in Studio Art and Art History. She is now working for Calvin Klein. She is contemplating getting a law degree and pursuing a career repatriating art objects. She still keeps in touch with several of her Oxbow classmates and they have regular reunions in Manhattan... I would say that Oxbow was the best semester that any of my four children spent in their cumulative 16 years of high school. Our daughter was the right kid, and for the right kid you do a wonderful job. You changed her life. Thank you.
