VANCOUVER, Wash. - Brightly colored paint, abstract forms and feathers are only a sample of the tools preschoolers from Washington State University Vancouver's Child Development Program used to express themselves through art. For the third year, the creativity of the littlest Cougs on campus, preschoolers aged three to five, will be on display in the 91³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏÍø Library. The exhibit will be up through Feb. 26.
The artwork created by the CDP children showcases their curiosity and creativity. It reflects their individuality and personal interpretations of the world around them. The children used both traditional and non-traditional art media in unique ways-exploring and experimenting as they went. There are examples of creative art, and art focused on fine art, photography, literature and nature.
The CDP serves a diverse group of families. The students are children of 91³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏÍø faculty, staff, students and other Clark County residents. The children represent a wide range of backgrounds and cultures-all of which is reflected in their artwork.
The 91³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏÍø Library is open Monday - Thursday 8 a.m. - 10 p.m., Friday 8 a.m. - 5 p.m., and Saturday - Sunday noon - 5 p.m. Admission is free. Parking is available at parking meters or in the Blue Daily Pay lot for $3. For more information, contact Erin Dengerink Madarang at madarang@vancouver.wsu.edu or 360-546-9551.
