Youth artists display work through December at Town Center Mall – Santa Maria Times

Every year, Boys & Girls Clubs offers the National Fine Arts Program at all of its Club sites on the Central Coast and as part of the art exploration program, members have their art judged and put on display for the public just like a professional artist.

Community leaders judged the art during the day on Thursday, and a grand opening and reception was held.

Prizes were awarded for multiple age levels and for art in a variety of media. Club members who participated in the program learned about and made creations in the following categories: monochromatic drawing, multicolored drawing, pastel, watercolor, oil or acrylic, printmaking, mixed media, and collage.

Club members were also given the opportunity to create a group art project to submit for judging. The exhibit space is on the second floor of the Town Center Mall across from the Macy’s entrance.
