Stimulate the mind by getting creative and igniting the imagination. At the Young Artists Conference, students will use their hands and minds to create art. It brings out unique talent from our young people. This conference offers a ton of long-time artistic talent and knowledge from people who love to share their passion. Schools and parents take students to expose them to different areas of the arts and encourage them to try something new.
This conference is open to all students in grades K-8.
