Your Art Here’s second annual national youth art month project, Billboard Generation II was an incredible success. This March we were able to put up a total of 8 youth art billboards in Bloomington and Indianapolis. Our efforts in planning this year’s event began last August—two fundraisers and eight months later we couldn’t be more pleased with the results. As always, our loyal supporters and volunteers were with us all the way.

As we approach our two-year anniversary as a community organization in Bloomington, we continue to be amazed by the ongoing support that we get from all of you. The success of Your Art Here is a reflection of the dedication and hard work of our volunteers and the support of the Bloomington community. We send our most sincere thanks and appreciation to all of you. Bare with us…it’s a long list!
