2009 Spring Continuing Education Youth Exhibition

March 15, 2009

Pacific Northwest College of Art proudly displays the final products from this spring’s Continuing Education Youth Classes. The young artists studied such courses as sculpture, drawing, painting, printmaking and digital video.

The mission of youth classes is to provide artistic skill building and exploration for students, ages 4-18. Courses offer a wide variety of media and the curriculum aims to provide basic skill and vocabulary.

Program exhibits express the mission of PNCA’s youth program: student-centered learning, accuracy and discovery in making, effective problem solving and collaboration, perceptual sensitivity, imaginative expression, knowledge of historical and contemporary art and a celebration of creativity and diversity.
