Open to 2020 Youth Art Month participants, their families, and teachers.

For almost 30 years, the Portland Museum of Art and the Maine Art Education Association (MAEA) have collaborated on an annual exhibition of Kindergarten-12th grade student artwork from across the state of Maine. Artists are invited to this special celebration to share their work with family and friends, meet other Youth Art Month Artists, and receive a certificate of participation. 

This year will feature a special art-making activity available to all youth artists and their families. We will also raffle off a few Family Memberships and sign people up for the Susie Konkel Pass.
