County Calls for High School Student Art 
Fresno Arts Council & County Partner on Request

The Fresno County Board of Supervisors and the Fresno Arts Council would
like to invite all Fresno County High School students to submit artwork for
display (2 dimensional visual art).  All entries will be considered and
selected by the Fresno Arts Council.  The art selected will be unveiled and
displayed downtown Fresno in the entrance of the historic Hall of Records. 

The Board of Supervisors will issue a certificate of achievement for the
selected artwork. The original piece of visual art will hang for six months
at which time the paintings will be returned to the Fresno Arts Council for
return to the artist.   The art will be requested on a bi-annual basis and
selected for display every 6 months.

All entries considered for selection must be 2 dimensional and fit into an
18x24 inch frame and presented in a horizontal format.  Entries can be
watercolor, acrylic, photographic, etc.  Please submit all pieces for
consideration to the Fresno Arts Council or your Board of Supervisors
respective staff.  

Board Chairman, Susan B. Anderson stated, "This is the third program in
which the County is partnering with the Arts Council; it is a wonderful
opportunity to showcase our talented students and enrich the experience of
citizens during their visit to the Hall of Records".   A major call to
students will begin in late summer to launch the effort through County High
Schools.

The County would like to display 2 pieces of original art from each of the
five Supervisorial Districts.  Contact Luis Chavez at (559) 824-5458 for
more information about registration and entry or email
