By participating in the Conference for Young Artists, students will use their imaginations to create and design their own works of art. Presenters will share their knowledge and talent with students by teaching them art techniques and methods. Teachers and parents can help students expand their imaginations and build creativity by encouraging them to try new art techniques. These programs can open doors to potential higher education and career opportunities for students.
This conference is open to all students in grades K-8.

This activity is funded in part with a grant from the Southwest Minnesota Arts Council made possible by the voters of Minnesota thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund and an appropriation from the Minnesota State Legislature with money from the State's general fund.
