4-H invites you and your family to participate in this event filled with art!
Everybody has a skill, a talent, an interest, or a special quality that they are passionate about. We call these things SPARKS. They provide joy, purpose, and direction. You guessed it this year’s theme is “Find your SPARKS!” Draw, paint, photograph, or create art that brings you joy, purpose, and passion!  

New this year we are offering a traveling exhibition opportunity for youth to have their art showcased in the three counties. Selections will be based on youth’s permission, space available, and connection to the theme. Details if selected will be communicated later.
