Generations: a call for artists 
July 9 - August 28, 2011
Artists working in all media are invited to submit work influenced by the theme of "generations". Artwork should illustrate an expression of cultural, historical, social, or geographical characteristics connecting young and old such as: ancestry, heritage, family or community bonds, social dynamics, collaboration, guidance and growth. Please share with us your own interpretations of "generations".
This eight-week exhibition will be held in conjunction with free community programming dedicated to fostering the bonds and creativity of young people and their significant adults. The workshop expressions will be in the forms of performance art and poetry, dance, puppetry, drawing, painting, clay and fabric crafts, podcasting, and more TBA. To honor all generations we will exhibit artwork created by the youth of Yonkers in conjuction with the works of professional artists whose art addresses the exhibition theme.
