'Creativity Unbound' Collects Art From Local K-12 Students

Utah State University Arts Are Core is sponsoring the 4th annual Creativity Unbound Student Art Exhibition.

An opening for the exhibition will be from 5-8 p.m. Feb. 10 at the Lyndsley Wilkerson Gallery in the Sorenson Center for Clinical Excellence on the Utah State University Logan campus.

Creativity Unbound is a collection of works by student artists from Logan, Cache County, and local charter schools. With over 200 works of art from 13 schools, multiple school districts and charter schools, Creativity Unbound showcases students’ creativity, artistic expression and arts-integrated learning.

This exhibition provides students and teachers an opportunity to display creative work from the classroom in a professional gallery that honors their work as an eff­ective path to learning. The importance of the arts and the accomplishments and hard work of teachers and students cannot be overstated.

The arts give children a voice, and displaying their work allows the community to hear what they have to say. Each student brings a special lens through which they see the world, resulting in a rich tapestry of diverse artwork that reflects each individual. Several of the artworks in this exhibition explore science, math, language arts, and social studies concepts through the arts. Arts Integration is a strong component and multifaceted approach to Creativity Unbound.
