A portfolio of nontraditional art preservation can be a great way for 8th grade students to explore the history and importance of preserving art. This portfolio could include research on the different methods of preserving art, such as digital archiving, conservation, and restoration. Students could also explore the different types of nontraditional art, such as street art, graffiti, and performance art, and discuss the importance of preserving these art forms. Additionally, students could research the different organizations and initiatives that are dedicated to preserving nontraditional art, and discuss the impact these organizations have had on the art world. Finally, students could create their own artwork that reflects their understanding of nontraditional art preservation and discuss the importance of preserving art for future generations.
