<\/p>\n
(August 13, 2013) – YWCA Northeast Indiana is still calling for entries of artwork done by elementary and middle school students to be displayed at the Circle of Women luncheon on December 5, 2013!<\/p>\n
This art can be any medium – paint, crayon, pencil, paper collage, etc. – as long as it is 8×10″, able to be framed, and in keeping with the theme, “What does it mean to have a happy childhood?”<\/p>\n
The winner(s) will be chosen by Fort Wayne artists Terry Ratliff and Vicki Junk Wright and will be recognized at the December 5 event.<\/p>\n
Children may enter multiple times. All entries will be displayed at the luncheon and, therefore, will not be returned.
