A Greeting

Welcome to Cross Currents, the Wilbur Cross literary magazine. This is the first of many collections of visual, musical, and literary art created and submitted by Cross students. If you are interested in submitting, click the "SUBMIT" button in the top right of the screen. Happy browsing.

AN EXPLANATION

This digital magazine came into existence in the minds of its editor-in-chief and faculty advisor in the spring of 2015 in response to the lack of a platform through which the students of Wilbur Cross could express themselves in their literary and artistic work. We plan for it to continue to be accessible to every member of our school for years to come.

- Quincy, Editor-in-Chief

A Note From the Advisor

Creativity is the foundation of humanity. Through art and innovation we engage each other, build with each other and learn from each other. We learn about ourselves. It is the medium for the human spirit, the tool to shape human culture and the garden where human civilization grows. Creativity is the incarnation of dreams.

I am constantly in awe of the talents of the students at Wilbur Cross High School, and honored to be the faculty advisor for Cross Currents, a forum for art and innovation: storytelling, invention, experimentation, performance, poetry, music and visual expression.

And if someone tells you that I invented the cell phone, it is only partly true.

- Ms. Sasso, Faculty Advisor
