Capitol Art Exhibition 2021 Virtual
Sponsored by the Georgia Art Education Association


Hundreds of works and 45 videos represent student artists from across Georgia ranging in age from kindergarten through college. Arranged into three galleries named for streets near the Georgia Capitol, we have avoided numbering or ranking and instead have places work into fifteen-minute presentations so State leaders and student artists can easily find the artwork they are seeking.  We are pleased to keep this important event going virtually during these challenging times. The GAEA sponsored Capitol Art Exhibition is one of the most comprehensive and longest running events of its kind--offering the largest state-wide multi-age student art show in Georgia for over 50 years. HAPPY YOUTH ART MONTH, enjoy the show!

What is Youth Art Month?
 
A national arts advocacy program, Youth Art Month was initiated in 1961 by the ACMI (Art and Craft Materials Institute.) The CAE, (Council for Art Education, Inc.) administers the program along with the sponsorship of NAEA.

The goals of Youth Art Month are:
  • To recognize art education as a viable factor in the total education curricula that develops citizens of a global society.
  • To recognize art is a necessity for the full development of better quality of life for all.
  • To direct attention to the value of art education for divergent and critical thinking.
  • To expand art programs in schools and stimulate new art programs.
  • To encourage commitment to the arts by students, community organizations, and individuals everywhere.
  • To provide additional opportunities for individuals of all ages to participate in creative art learning.
  • To increase community, business and governmental support for art education.
  • To increase community understanding and interest in art and art education through involvement in art exhibits, workshops, and other creative ventures.
  • To reflect and demonstrate the goals of the National Art Education Association that work toward the improvement of art education at all levels.
