Over at the University of Arkansas

Here is my review of myspace by Kelsey Felthousen.

Also, you can drop in at the University of Arkansas and wander the halls and gallery any time they are open and view university students' art. I would highly recommend it. Here are two that I saw in my wanderings last night.

"The project will last until April 5. Felthousen said she will have a yard sale from 7-10 a.m. that day. Then she'll tear down the walls.

There will be an opening reception from 5-7 p.m. Friday on the Union Mall and the UA Fine Arts Center."

Logo Contest Winner

The NWACC Art Club held a logo design contest to determine their new Club logo during the month of March. The contest was open to NWACC Art Club members. 14 Club members submitted 18 logos (in both color and black and white). Submissions were uploaded onto a ballot online and voted on by members. Nick Heintz was announced the winner of the contest to Club members on March 26. The prize was four tickets to Traces at the Walton Arts Center for Sunday, March 30 at 2:00 pm. "Traces is high-energy acrobatics-poetic and explosive, humorous and thoughtful. Combining traditional acrobatic forms with street elements such as skateboarding and basketball, mixed in with some theatre and contemporary dance, it surprises, awes and delights at every turn." The prize was generously donated by Jodi Beznoska, Communications Director at the Walton Arts Center.
