Celebrating Youth! - Art Exhibit
7th Annual
ART EXHIBIT
January 31, 2010
THEME: “Weaving the Web”
Write, Draw, Paint, Photograph!
Make a Collage, write a Poem, create a Sculpture or a Video!
See the Past Events page for pictures of past entries.
The theme “Weaving the Web” highlights the connections between all of us. Here are some questions to inspire the artists:
What does “Weaving the Web” make you think of? What does your network of friends, family, community look like? What unites you and ties you to the past or the future? What links you to the world around you? Show us the web of your life! The theme is purposely open-ended to allow the widest range of creativity and interpretation. It is important, however, that the submitted artwork addresses the theme in some way.
Students may enter individually or as a group. Everyone receives a certificate of participation and all of the art received will be displayed at Celebrating Youth! 2010 on Sunday, January 31 at Monona Terrace.
