Student Art Exhibit on Display at Saginaw’s Andersen Enrichment Center
The Saginaw Arts & Enrichment Commission presents the Celebrating Saginaw’s Cultures: Building Unity through Diversity Student Art Exhibit Award Winners, as part of Art @ the Andersen. The exhibit will be on display through February 25 at the Andersen Enrichment Center, 120 Ezra Rust Drive, Saginaw. Viewing hours are 9:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m. Monday – Friday.
Award winners were selected from the multi-cultural art exhibition of more than 400 pieces showcasing the talent of Saginaw Public School students, grades 3 – 12, who worked on creating a piece of artwork for the exhibit and competition over a multi-week period. Students developed their composition using the elements of art and the principles of design and included a statement of learning with each piece of art. Categories included drawing, painting, design, 3D functional, 3D non-functional, and body adornment.
The Art @ the Andersen project was established by the Saginaw Arts & Enrichment Commission to give artists the opportunity to showcase their work and to introduce the community to the abundant creativity in the Great Lakes Bay Region and throughout the state. Individual pieces on display may be
available for purchase.
