Annual Student Exhibit and Auction – Check the list here to make sure your kid is confirmed for participation.<\/a> I need confirmation from parents so we know we’re all on the same page with the deadlines, artwork, and such.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kids are working on their selfies. This is one of the most challenging things we do each year, and everyone learns a lot!

Once we’ve finished our self portraits we’ll be making auction items for the show. Kids are not required to donate a painting, but if they chose to donate, they learn that their art has the power to help people. Little kids need to understand that they are donating a painting that will be auctioned off to benefit World Central Kitchen to help feed hungry people. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
