The Wilby High School Art Club is a group of students who share an interest in the creation of art. This Art Club will promote imagination, creativity, and art production.

We focus on materials and projects that are beyond what one would do in a regular art class. Students are able to experiment with various art materials in a personalized, open and exploratory manner.

Students do not need any prior art experience to join Art Club; it provides activities for students of all levels of interest and abilities. This is a great opportunity to get involved, learn about art, and have fun!

The vision of the Backstage Club is to explore the many and diverse aspects of theater and play productions at Wilby High School.

Backstage members will be offered opportunities to actively participate in Wilby's productions as "crew members" through costume design and creation, setting design and creation, prop creation and management, or serving as sound and/or lighting technicians.

"Creative Colors: High School Coloring Club" is a vibrant and inclusive extracurricular activity designed to foster creativity, relaxation, and a sense of community among high school students. This club will provide a welcoming space for students to explore the therapeutic benefits of coloring while unleashing their artistic potential.

Through a diverse range of coloring materials, including coloring books, markers, colored pencils, and more, students have the opportunity to unwind from the demands of academic life and express themselves through the medium of color. The club's meetings encourage mindfulness and stress relief as students engage in this simple yet profound form of self-expression. 

Furthermore, Creative Colors promotes social interaction and camaraderie among members. Students can share techniques, exchange ideas, and collaborate on group projects -- creating a supportive environment where friendships can flourish. This club is not just about coloring; it's about forming connections and enhancing well-being through art.

In summary, Creative Colors offers high school students a haven of relaxation, creativity, and friendship. It is an enriching and joyful experience that not only helps students decompress but also empowers them to embrace their inner artist while building lasting connections with peers.

The vision of the Wilby High School Crochet Club is to teach basic crochet skills to everyone in the club. We will be making things for ourselves, as well as collaborating and contributing to creating a Wilby High blanket together.

Diversity: The art of thinking independently, together.

The Diversity Club exists to provide a safe and inclusive space for all members of the WHS community regardless of race, gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation, religion, or ability. Our club's main theme is KINDNESS! One of our significant goals is to create an environment where everyone can bring their authentic selves and make it easy for others to do the same.
