A flock of many bird drawings will travel this weekend to be entered in Audubon Miami Valley’s (AMV) first Winter Art Show for area K-12 students. Though ribbons and prizes are going to be awarded to many participants, we concentrated on the joy encountered while drawing midwestern and endangered bird species. Learning about John James Audubon and Charley Harper helped spark and inspire the living artist inside our students.
The contest winners will be posted on the AMV website on February 25, 2012. Then, the award winning artwork from this competition will be part of a public art exhibit in the atrium, Alumni Hall, Miami University, Oxford campus. The exhibit will open at 12:00pm on Saturday, March 3, 2012 and end at 4:00pm. The exhibit is free and open to the public. The works of all student entered by all of the schools will be on exhibit.
