The heavy dark clouds in the distance cast a gray essence over the water and trees.

Extraordinary Arts Exhibit

Pin It

The Charleston Artist Guild sponsors the Extraordinary Art Exhibit annually for lowcountry area special needs students. This year it will be at the Gaillard Auditorium on Feb. 1st to 4th 2012. We have over 100 entries from many schools. It is a highlight of the art program for the children to exhibit their artwork in public and possibly win a prize. Every entrant will receive a gift certificate for art supplies. After a reception of donuts and soft drinks, we have a local art judge present the ribbons. Steve Jacobs is there playing his key board, and all the families are invited to join the festivities. It is truly a wonderful outreach event for the students & families AND for our members as well!
Be sure to come out and support these wonderful kids and view their masterpieces!
The artist reception will be on Sat, Feb 4th from 1-2 PM.
