ESTADO DEL ARTE:

Esta exposición de arte juvenil es una colaboración anual entre el Museo Nacional de Arte de Vida Silvestre y los educadores de arte de nuestras escuelas locales. Los cientos de piezas de arte en exhibición demuestran maravillosamente cómo los estudiantes evolucionan y crecen como artistas, a medida que avanzan en los grados K-12. Cada educador de arte interpretó el tema Elementos a su manera. ¡La diversidad de los medios y el enfoque artístico muestran la creatividad de nuestros estudiantes y la calidad de la educación artística en el condado de Teton!
