Youth Art Month kicks off with display at City Hall

 

In honor of Youth Art Month, HCS student artwork is on display at Hampton City Hall, 22 Lincoln St. The public may view the artwork during regular business hours, 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

 

The Hampton City Schools Fine Arts Department celebrates Youth Art Month in cooperation with the city of Hampton, by displaying student artwork from all grade levels in the lobby of City Hall. This year the show will remain on display until Friday, March 25. In addition, individual schools throughout the city will be displaying student artwork in honor of Youth Art Month.

 

Youth Art Month is a month of promoting art and art education in the United States. It is observed in March, with thousands of American schools participating, often with the involvement of local art museums and civic organizations. Youth Art Month was founded in 1961 under the name Children’s Art Month, but has evolved to include students at all grade levels.
