Youth Art Month
YOUTH ART MONTH is coming in March 2027!!
Calling all visual artists!!
Every year, the Anchorage School District hosts Youth Art Month in March. Students from all grades are invited to submit an original piece of artwork. Selected artwork is then displayed all over Anchorage - in the Museum, in the Midtown Mall, in the ASD Education Center. This year’s theme is “My Community, My Story”. Artwork doesn’t have to represent the theme, but the theme can be an inspiration.
Join us as we celebrate Frontier's talented visual artists!!
If your student artist(s) has/have lovely finished pieces of artwork to submit, please consider submitting it for the Youth Art Month Show. Submissions are due no later than December 11th. You can drop your artist’s work off at the Frontier office in Anchorage or Eagle River.
Guidelines for Artwork:
~ ALL work should be completed by the student and finished quality
· NO rough drafts
· NO copywritten material
· NO violence
· NO strong political work
· NO copied or non-original work
· NO holiday art
· NO “exercises”, “how-to-draw”, etc.
· One submission per artist
· Frontier can submit 9 pieces total to the Youth Art Month show. In case we have more than 9 pieces submitted, the Frontier staff will select the artworks that appear in the Youth Art Month show.
Frontier Advisor Liz Hunt is our point of contact for this exciting opportunity. Please contact her (hunt_elizabeth@asdk12.org or 742-1186) with any questions
