The Town of Southampton Youth Bureau is now accepting submissions for their Creative Arts Contest! This year’s theme is “New Beginnings”. Artists are encouraged to share their interpretation through art of what a new beginning could look like. The contest is open to students in grades 5 – 12 who reside or attend school in the Town of Southampton. Artwork will be judged on quality, creativity, and presentation based on the artist’s interpretation of “New Beginnings”. All art entries (maximum of two entries per artist) must be dropped off at the Southampton Youth Bureau’s main office at the Flanders Youth Center, 655 Flanders Rd by Friday, April 1st. Participating artists are invited to bring their families and friends to the final exhibit at the Parrish Art Museum, 279 Montauk Hwy on Friday, May 6th from 6:00pm – 7:00pm. Prizes will be awarded to the “Best Art Piece” in the categories of photography, graphic art, sculpture, and free-hand.
