Creating & Submitting art for the

Windows of Imagination Children’s Art Show

Theme: “Imagine if you had a super-power”

Last day to submit art:  Wednesday, August 19, before 5pm

CREATING YOUR ART

THEME: “Imagine if you had a super-power”

We’re asking artists to use their imagination to come up with art that reflects the theme: “Imagine if you had a super-power”.  Use your imagination to answer these questions:

  • What would that super-power be?

  • What strengths do you have, or would like to have?

  • How can you use these powers to help your family, your friends and your community? 

 

“WINNING”

A panel of judges representing Lodi Adopt-A-Child, Community Partnership for Families, the Lodi Arts Foundation, the Lodi Arts Commission, the Lodi Youth Commission and the Lodi City Council will select the winning art pieces based on artistry, creativity and how well the art represents the theme.  Winners will be announced and prizes will be presented at the Art Show on August 29.

 

WINDOWS OF IMAGINATION

The “Windows of Imagination” is quite literally about our windows.  The winning art pieces will be digitally reproduced and displayed in the windows of our building.
