The Dundas Valley School of Art recently received a grant allowing them to put together a traveling exhibition, “Artist’s Connection”.
The Artist’s Connection will focus on quality, small, two-dimensional works of art, representative of the Hamilton Arts Community, and will travel through the Hamilton Wentworth Elementary & Secondary Schools. The unusual feature of this traveling show is that it will include the possibility of one artist visit with each exhibition. When a school receives the exhibit, they will be invited to call one of the artists involved to arrange an artist’s talk or class workshop.
DVSA will purchase and frame the original artwork,
and will provide an honorarium for each artist visit.
For further information click here for the PDF.
If you have any questions, please call 905-628-6357 ext. 205.
