NewArt Northwest Kids Brave Spaces

Education Corridor

-

This year marks the 14th annual NewArt Northwest Kids exhibition. This year’s theme, Brave Spaces, encouraged students to share their personal stories of bravery that help define who they are, and stories of bravery they saw or imagined. The works of art reveal the resilience of each student and the bravery they witness every day.

Teachers from across the region and state integrated art into their online classrooms, and students were creative in their interpretations of the theme. This year’s body of work—30 pieces, juried from over 18 schools—were created by K–12 students in homeschools, private, and public schools from Eugene, Springfield, Glide, Dorena, and Florence. The artwork was on display in the lower hallways through May 22, 2022.
