Region – Artwork from 471 Massachusetts students in grades K-12 will be on display at the Central MA Regional Youth Art Month Exhibit in the Higgins Education Wing of the Worcester Art Museum from Sunday, March 1 to Sunday, March 22. 

Youth Art Month is a national celebration endorsed by Council for Art Education, the National Art Education Association, and the Massachusetts Art Education Association. A family reception will be held on March 22 from 12:30-2:30 p.m. This reception will feature a recognition ceremony at 1:15pm, as well as performances by Shrewsbury’s Oak Middle School Select Choir from 12:45-1:15 p.m. and the Auburn High School Chamber Singers and Acarockets from 1:45-2:15 p.m. This annual celebration, which typically takes place in March, emphasizes the value of art education for all children and encourages support for quality art programs in public and private schools. The Museum is open Wednesday-Sunday 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and the 3rd Thursday of every month, 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Admission to the YAM exhibit in the Higgins Education Wing is always free.
