\nTime for the kids to choose and give titles to the works they’d like to exhibit in the Annual Show. The sooner I have the info, the sooner I can pull the programs and tags together.\u00a0I’m excited to be working on the postcard design. Each kid will get 4 to hand out or send.
\nTIMELINE
\n<\/strong>April 1 \u2013 Exhibitor list is complete! All 24 of my current students are participating.
\nApril 30 \u2013 or sooner\u00a0<\/strong>Need titles for the 1 or 2 artworks (and prices or NFS) for the tags and program. I encourage the kids to invent short<\/strong>\u00a0(20 characters or fewer) interesting titles for their works, and price them if they want to sell.
\nMay 23 \u2013 or sooner\u00a0<\/strong>All framed artwork delivered to me so I can hang the show.
\nMay 27 \u2013 Party & Auction! 5-7:00 <\/strong>at Brabo Benefits,\u00a065 Cordage Park Circle.\u00a0 <\/strong>Artwork can be taken home at the end of the show, or picked up later at 20 Savery Ave.<\/p>\n
Enjoy these awesome self portraits, and scroll down for the class schedule.<\/p>\n
