March First Fridays, 2010
Downtown Youth Art Hop Winners
GOSHEN, IN – Downtown Goshen exploded in the arts Friday night during the kick-off of the Spring Arts Fest.
The event, sponsored by Accents Framing & Gifts, Chiropractic Wellness Center, Families First , Eyedart Studio gallery, Goshen College and The Goshen Theater, was the perfect start to spring coupled with the warmer temperatures and sunny weather.
Local art teachers submitted students’ work for the Downtown Youth Art Hop. Elementary and middle school students each received a participation certificate, while the high school pieces were juried with prizes going to Best of Show, First, Second and Third places, along with two Honorable Mentions. Fifteen downtown stores will display the artwork through March 26.
