COLDWATER – (WTVB) – Students are being encouraged to submit their artwork for the annual “Kids’ Art Rocks at Tibbits” show and contest.
Artwork submitted by student will be displayed at the Tibbits Opera house Art Gallery from May until July.
Over 250 pieces of student art has been recognized since Kids’ Art Rocks started.
Organizers expanded the program several years ago by moving to an open submission of artwork.
There is no cost to enter and students may submit one piece.
Artwork should be flat or on canvas, must be unframed, be a minimum size of 8” x 10”, and also be appropriate to hang in businesses.
All artwork will be presented in an exhibit in Tibbits Art Gallery. Pieces judged and chosen for the final exhibit will be professionally framed and entered into the art lease program for businesses to sponsor and display for one year.
A reception on May 12 from 6-7pm at Tibbits will honor all student artwork, whether chosen for the lease or not.
To enter, artwork should be dropped off at the Tibbits Administration office by April 17th.
There will be a short entry form to fill out for each artist. For questions or more information, call Steph at Tibbits at 517-278-6029, email sburdick@tibbits.org or visit the Arts Alive facebook page at www.facebook.com/Arts-Alive-Coldwater.
