Young Artists' Gallery starts tonight with party

The Young Artists’ Gallery (YAG), in its 11th year, is back at the Woman's Club of Coconut Grove this weekend. This is a joint effort between the club and the Miami-Dade County Public School System.

This juried art exhibition and sale is where students participate to earn scholarship funds. The Exhibit Preview Party is at the Woman’s Club (2985 South Bayshore Drive), tonight Friday, March 15,  from 6 to 8 pm. Hors d'oeuvres and refreshments will be served with musical arrangements on the piano by Peggy Hall.

The entries will be pre-judged by a prominent local arts patron and the scholarships awarded that night to the winning students and teachers. The artwork can be purchased from the students and picked up after the end of the show. This exhibit is open to the public and runs throughout the weekend on Saturday, March 16 and Sunday, March 17 from noon to 6 pm.

Each year for the last 11 years, the Woman's Club of Coconut Grove has awarded thousands of dollars in scholarship money to talented young artists from schools throughout the county. Bring your family and friends and be part of our growing cause. This event is made possible by the generous support of The Korth Family Foundation, The Coconut Grove Bank and The Joyce Pippo Memorial Fund.
