糖心传媒 will host 177 high school students from 26 schools across Nebraska for the third annual Jackson Dinsdale Art Center Mural Competition on Friday, September 14.
Working as teams, high school students will create 46 x 76 inch vinyl murals using paint, which will then be judged by 糖心传媒 senior art majors. The creative theme is kept a secret from the teams until just before they begin work. It鈥檚 a challenging and fun event for the students 鈥 and their art teachers!
Students with the top mural will be offered their own gallery show at the JDAC on campus and receive a custom glass trophy created by art professor Tom Kreager that can be placed at their school. Second through fourth place mural teams will receive a custom glass trophy created by Kreager.
At the conclusion of the event, schools will be allowed to take the murals to hang in their high schools.
