THIS OLD HOUSE
This summer for our JumpStart for Arts summer program (economically-challenged kids in Plano benefit from FREE arts lessons for a week during the summer) we want to teach the kids about the art of looking/seeing!

Therefore, we invite you to create YOUR creative representation of the new ArtCentre of Plano, also known as the Olney Davis House (Victorian, built in 1890) at 901 18th Street. The subject is the house, and we know that everyone will have a different creative approach on the subject. Any medium and method is encouraged. We want to illustrate to the kids that a single subject can be visually interpreted and represented in many forms.

SIZE OF WORK: No limit. Should be hanging ready or have a stable support system or base.
 
MEDIUM: All accepted
 
WORK DUE TO ARTCENTRE: By June 20, 2011
 
INTERESTED IN ENTERING? Email suzysloanjones@yahoo.com, subject: This Old House

*All works to be lent to ArtCentre by artist for THIS OLD HOUSE exhibition, June 30-August 19. If sold, 25% donation to ArtCentre is greatly appreciated. All unsold work will be returned to artist.
