CALL FOR ENTRIES:

Our art center is art education focused providing history and related art projects associated with past and current artists; therefore we recommend recreating a well known image as your background (see Starry Night by Vincent Van Gogh example). However, we understand artists and want artists to express themselves freely – therefore we have included that the chosen artist will have the option to become our Art Centers ARTIST OF THE MONTH where we create a 15 to 20 min video of your history and art creations – THEN we create art projects using similar techniques to your art styles!
