Sunset at the Beach By Edward Jamie |
This year’s exhibit included more than 65 works selected from more than 950 students from 24 schools who participated in the Art-a-thon. Students from elementary, middle, and high schools produced their works using a variety of media, including crayon, pastels, colored pencils, ink, graphite, collage, mixed media, watercolors, and acrylics.
The competition raised more than $34,400 this year, up from $32,000 and $29,000 the previous two years. Forty percent of the funds, or about $13,790, will be returned to the participating schools to purchase art-related materials for the students. Another 40% goes to programming at the Isla Center for the Arts, and 20% goes toward prizes for the students.
The project is supported in part by the University of Guam. Corporate sponsors include Fish Eye Marine Park and Matson Foundation.
