Arts Legacy Grant
We'll partner with a local artist for a 3-day workshop where youth create their own piece, and a 1-day workshop for younger kids that introduces art concepts and ideas. We'll also improve the display and production spaces for youth art at our county fair.

ACHF Arts Education
As a result of this program, 4-H youth in Norman County will be comfortable exploring new ways to express themselves through the arts while building communication skills and self-confidence. Evaluation will occur through participant and artist questionnaires, participation and audience counts, and small group input sessions from participants and volunteers.
Because of the grant funding, youth grades Kindergarten through 12+ had the opportunity to learn about creating mosaics. They learned directly from a local artist. They built on their skills in the arts project. The older youth worked on their team-building skills.
