In 1999, The New School started a tradition of celebrating Halloween with sophomore students from Syracuse University’s Communication Design Program. A few weeks prior to this annual event the SU students visited The New School to work in small groups on a collaborative, problem solving activity. This year each group of elementary and college students were challenged to invent and design a new game. Last year they had to design and create a way to protect an egg, which was later dropped from 14 feet!
For Halloween these same small groups of New School and SU students collaboratively created a 5 minute skit based on their costumes. This time the New School students visited the Warehouse to perform their skit which included music, props and our year long theme: “Inspiration, Imagination and Invention”
