The next time you visit the Denver Art Museum or 40 West Gallery, you may recognize the names of more than one artist! Currently displayed amongst each location is a collection of impressive and original works by two of Watershed’s own artists: Zora Eckert ‘24 and Calvin Boal ‘26, both of whose submissions were recently selected among thousands of Colorado teens to receive several Scholastic Art Awards!
Students, Sustainability, and the Senator’s Desk
At Watershed, your work doesn't land in the recycling bin; it lands on the Senator's desk. The students in the 11th and 12th grade Materials Science Expedition course certainly have a grasp on the concept of engaging in work that matters. Students know that by exercising their agency, leadership, and communication skills, they truly can make a difference beyond the walls of the school.
Ceramics Through the Ages & the Southwest Kiln Conference
The essential question in this class, “What can art teach us about the past?” drove students to explore firsthand how pottery was a crucial component of ancient Puebloan life. Students were offered glimpses into the entire pottery-making process, from gathering raw earth material to participating in ancient trench-firing demonstrations.

Diving Deep Into Ancestral Puebloan Pottery
The Ceramics Through the Ages course traveled to Blanding, Utah to participate in the Southwest Kiln Conference. This annual gathering brings together people at the forefront of studying the historic ceramics of the US Southwest and replicating the work as a way to better understand the process used by ancient potters.
