Keep My Future Bright - Kids Art Show
Switch Wicked is excited to host its first kids' art exhibition with participants from Riley County and surrounding areas. This is a free, non-juried art show — please check out the details and FAQ's below to submit your child's handmade artwork! An opening reception will be held Saturday, September 19, from 3 - 5pm. The public is invited to meet the artists and enjoy light refreshments, live music, and screen printing (details to be announced!)
When times feel tumultuous, artwork can uplift us and help us feel a sense of belonging — this is especially true when looking at the whimsical and uninhibited artwork of children. It is ever-important to remember kids are our future, and we want to keep their future bright!
The artwork will be displayed from September 19 - October 16.
