Announcing the winners of Your Art Here’s 2nd annual youth
art billboard competition, Billboard Generation II, March 1st through
April 1st.
March 2004, in celebration of National Youth Art Month, Your Art
Here is pleased to present the winning artworks from Billboard Generation
II. Eight different artworks made by students in grades 1–12
in response to the question “What would you like to tell your
community?” are currently on display on billboards in Bloomington
and in Indianapolis. Winning themes include the effects of pollution
on our environment, diversity, and the importance of community involvement.
Your Art Here is a non-profit arts organization. The Billboard Generation
II project is meant to encourage youth to think about how to enrich
their community through visual dialogue. By offering young people
public advertising spaces for personal expression, we hope to instill
in them the desire, knowledge, and confidence that will allow them
to engage their community and world throughout their lives.
