Keep the Creative Juices Flowing
Friday, May 16th, 2008
In a day when children seem to prefer video games and texting to playing outside, having the chance to celebrate those who take an interest in something more thought provoking and challenging, like art, is brilliant. Saturday May 17th from 10 a.m. till 4 p.m. the YEA, also know as the Young Evanston Artists, will be showcasing artwork all along the sidewalks of the Chicago Dempster Merchants.
The artwork will come from a variety of students, varying in ages from 5 to 17. This is a great opportunity to support the choice these students made to express themselves artistically and the fact they want to share their expressions with the community. The more recognition they get, the more encouraged they and their peers will be to keep creating and expressing themselves through art.
