The Dallas Museum of Art opens its Young Artists Program and Exhibition this week, a program that partners with local schools, pre-k through 12th grade, challenging students to create works around a selected theme.
With 1,500 students participating this year, this is one of the largest exhibitions since the studio-based educational art program began in 1999.
The theme is “Self-Portrait,” coinciding with the DMA’s Art Ball 50, and students from several Preston Hollow schools are represented. Participating schools include: Dallas International School, Episcopal School of Dallas, Greenhill School and The Hockaday School.
An opening reception is 4:30-6 p.m. April 1, and the exhibition is on view in the DMA’s Chilton II Gallery until April 5.
