ArtWalk Through Young Eyes Photo Project
Kodak disposable cameras were distributed at the Children’s
Art Tent during the May 2008 event with the instruction to record their
favorite parts of ArtWalk and return the camera at the end of the evening.
ArtWalk developed the photos, matted a photo of the participant along
with their best photo; the matted photos will be given to them after the
July event. This exhibit illustrates that one is never too young to appreciate
the arts…and other important things. There are additional photo
collages on display in the lower windows of the Hansen Building, 477 Main.
