KidsArt Drawing Contest
Proudly sponsors by Bachmann Trains
KidsArt is working with the Big Train Show again in 2011! The contest will address three age groups: 4-6 years, 7-9 years and 10+ years. Students from Rancho Cucamonga, Chino Hills and Glendora KidsArt Studios will participate in the drawing contest. Directors, Ed and Sher Warren, will develop a drawing curriculum for the contest age groups. All entries will be displayed at the Big Train Show and winners will be announced at the show on May 21, 2011.
The KidsArt program teaches students realistic drawing and painting. The high quality fine art program offers art instructions that educates students how to “see” in a new way and appreciate art in a different dimension. Visit http://www.kidsartclasses.com for more information.
