Expressive Arts Showcase: 4-H Partners With Local Businesses

(Updated: April 27, 2022, 7:43 a.m.)

For a family-friendly art walk, check out our 4-H Partners downtown Concord that are displaying our 4-H Expressive Arts winners and participants. The displays include art from 4-H community club members. Youth are divided into three age divisions:  Cloverbud (5-7), Junior 8-13) and Senior (14-18). Cloverbud art received green ribbon recognition. Blue ribbons are awarded to the best in each category, in the Junior and Senior divisions. Red ribbons are awarded to the second place in each category, in the Junior and Senior divisions. Best in Class were awarded to the judges selection for best Drawing & Painting, 3-D Art, Sewing, Photography & Other. One entry was selected for overall Junior Best in Show and Senior Best in Show.

We would like to thank our community partners for making this art walk possible. Thank you Buzz City Games, Goldbarry Books, Shoebeedo, and Union Street Market for displaying the Expressive Arts pieces.
