Torrance Student Art Contest Set
Want to see some student art? Wonder if there are any budding Jackson Pollocks or Georgia O'Keeffe's lurking around the South Bay?
The works of local high schoolers will be displayed and judged in an annual art contest behind held Monday in Torrance.
The press release from Torrance Unified:
The 10th Annual Martin Luther King Jr. Visions of Unity Student Art Contest will take place on Monday, March 10th at the Torrance Memorial Health Conference Center at 6:30p.m.
Every year students from all four Torrance Unified high schools submit entries in one of 5 categories - sculpture and ceramics, painting and drawing, poetry, essay, and fiction. Student entries explore ways individuals can work together to cultivate greater healing, harmony, and understanding within their communities.
The Visions of Unity contest is sponsored by the Human Relations Forum of Torrance with community partners including Torrance Memorial Medical Center, Torrance Unified School District, The South Bay-Harbor-Long Beach Volunteer Center, Torrance League of Women Voters, and Palos Verdes Chapter LINKS, Inc.
This event is possible because of generous donations by Toyota Motor Sales, Anastasi Development Corp, KTLA 5, Baha'i Communities Foundation, Palos Verdes Chapter LINKS, Baszile Metals Service, Shirley Ho for Torrance Memorial Medical Center, Virco Manufacturing Company, and Dorothy Wu.
This event is free and open to the public. Torrance Memorial Health Conference Center is located at 3330 Lomita Blvd, in Torrance.
