Woven object above created by Irish artist Debbie Smyth.
Youth Art Month is upon us again. The theme this year is 'Art Breaks the Rules'.
For those of us who have not begun thinking of ideas here are some to get you kick started: broken mirror portraits; mosaics from broken objects; paint the frame not the canvas; graffitti art; surrealism or Escher - breaking rules of reality; paint with your fingers not the brush; mix oil with water; paint with rulers not with brushes; sculpture with rulers as the medium; paint on rulers; mobiles/chimes made from rulers, rulers as frames.
There are no restrictions with size or medium, we just ask that the work is READY TO HANG or if it is a sculpture that you bring a pedestal.
Please note the dates below have changed from previous information.
The show will be held at the Jefferson Center in Roanoke from March 1st - April 18th.
Hanging: Sunday, February 28th from 12-2pm. (If you are unable to make that time please make arrangements to have your work brought by another member or contact a member of the board. Make sure your work is READY TO HANG. ) A format for labels to accompany the work will follow.
Reception: Friday, March 19th from 5-7pm.
Take down: Sunday, April 18th. You can collect your work from 12-2pm and if you are unable to make that time, please make arrangements for someone else to pick up your work, or email us.
