4-H Art Labs/Workshops

A Statewide 4-H Arts Workshop January 17-18

As a result of discussions with the Arts and Communication Advisory Board, the former Arts Leadership Lab state-wide arts program is being re-created into two separate events on each side of the state, Art Lab East and Art Lab West. Both 4-H youth and adults are invited to participate in one or both of the Labs as the track offerings could be a bit different for each site. Open to adults and teens, the cost is $35. View the 4-H project resources page for the Art Lab brochures with registration >>>
