From Katie McEwan:
I wanted to reach out to you about the Youth Art Month show at the State Transportation Building. The deadline for registration has been extended to January 4th. I know many of us have renewed our memberships to the NAEA this year to attend the conference in March which means registration for the show is free! I've submitted to the show for the past three years and would love to help anyone who like to submit. The paperwork is really minimal and I will be having a day after school at Potter where I can help anyone with mounting and labeling. I also have shown interest at being a drop off site for work so, could it be any easier?! Here's the link for registration if you're interested. http://massarted.com/youth-art-month
If you have any questions please let me know.
