If we have not received your work at TAC this is the schedule for when I will be available to show you where to unpack your work and to put key stickers on your name tags. Unless you are shipping your work, PLEASE DO NOT JUST DROP YOUR WORK OFF WITHOUT UNPACKING AND ADDING SILVER AND GOLD KEYS TO NAME TAGS. This helps make sure your work is unpacked properly and labeled correctly. When you come to TAC, bring work to fourth floor and see Lynn C. in office 4-163, if she is not there, try the second door on the left, this is a store room for all the works as they are checked in. We have started installing/hanging work so it is imperative we have your work asap, so it can be curated appropriately in the exhibit. Feb. 17 Tuesday Work til 5:45 p.m. Feb 18 Wednesday is Ash Wednesday so won't work as long. Feb 19 Thursday work til 5:00 Feb 20 Friday Work til 5:30 Feb 21st - DeAnn Hansich will be at TAC at 9:00 a.m. to work with volunteers to complete the installation of the exhibit. Please arrange a trip with your students to see the entire show once it is installed! I know many area schools come to the ceremony, but to experience it again as a class/school is an excellent opportunity to reflect and take in all the great work without the 'rush' of the ceremony. We have several schools that travel to Omaha 1 - 3 hours to view the exhibit and go to other art venues, like Joslyn, Bemis, Hot Shops etc. We would LOVE more Omaha, Bellevue, Lincoln, Millard students to attend the show as a field trip also. The dates are Feb. 23 - end of March. March is Youth Arts Month, so it a great time to plan this!

Each artist has four minutes to present their work to an art-loving audience, discussing their work, inspirations, techniques, and future directions as time allows. Presentation formats may include Powerpoint or individual slides. Artists are required to donate one piece of artwork for a raffle and to present another for sale (artists will receive the purchase price, less any transaction fees). After the artist presentations, audience members vote for their favorite by dropping a raffle ticket in the chosen artist’s bowl. At the end of the evening winning artists will be announced as well as raffle winners. read more...
