Youth Art in the Park
|
The Kennedale Arts & Market Committee presents the Youth Art in the Park.Youth Art in the Park is a forum for emerging student artists who would like an opportunity to showcase their art in an art exhibition. Young people are bursting with energy, and part of our mission is to help nurture this talent in artists of all ages. Youth Art in the Park is a fun way for boys and girls to express themselves visually and encourage the creative growth of young people.The first annual Youth Art in the Park will be located in a specially constructed tent in our festival area. Students currently enrolled in grades 7 through 12 as of the date of the festival are invited to submit and application to show their work during this time. The art is exhibited throughout the three-day event, and the artists MUST be present throughout the event to represent their work and discuss their process with the general public. Applications will be accepted beginning TBD, and must include photographs or copies of the students work. All applications must be received to Art in the Park before TBD. A committee will review the applications, and notifications will be sent to those accepted artists, as well as those artists who have made the waiting list. Available space is limited, so a timely application is important. Once an artist is invited, space is assigned based on postmark or delivery date of completed applications. The Festival will list the student artists in our program and will provide Festival signage to the Youth Artist area. Artists will also participate in an on-site jury process and will be eligible for awards. Awards will be given out Sunday afternoon, April 10, 2010.There is no application fee, nor is there a fee for participation. This program is designed to provide experience for young artists in the commercial world of art displays and sales, in front of the general public.
