about the exhibit
The West Nebraska Arts Center, with the support of the Nebraska Arts Council, the Nebraska Cultural Endowment, First National Bank of Omaha, and the National Endowment for the Arts, is pleased to present the Duck Stamp Winner, Ed Wards Project Class and the After School Art Program. The opening reception will be Sunday, April 27 at 2pm – 4pm.
April is our student art month. We will get a great variety of mediums and subjects. This show will be up until April 27th. After School Art Program and the Ed Wards Project Class are a seven-month program that offers insight and exploration into arts education. This is for grades 1-6 and we use the Nebraska State Standards for Fine Arts Education as a guide. Students will develop skills to create, present, and connect art with the human experience. We help them develop an understanding of the principles of art and elements of design. This deepens their expressive and critical skills. They are also honing their art capabilities and expanding their imagination.
