Celebrating Art Is Education
The Hayward Unified School District’s annual Art is Education exhibition showcases work of seventy-five art students. For the last thirteen years during March, which is Arts Education Month, Hayward Arts Council has sponsored month-long exhibitions showcasing outstanding student work in the John O’Lague Galleria in Hayward City Hall.
Students have been selected for their exceptional achievement in the arts and their potential to continue in the arts in the future. “Art Is Education” Exhibition is a highly selective show and you will truly get to see the best that Hayward Schools have to offer in a variety of media including 3D and 2D works.
On Friday, March 24 from 5:30-7:30PM exhibiting artists will be honored with a program including certificate presentations and performances at Hayward City Hall Rotunda.
The exhibition sponsored by Hayward Arts Council will run from March 20th through April 24th at the John O'Lague Galleria at Hayward City Hall, 777 B Street.
The Hayward Arts Council believes that all students deserve access to a quality arts education to help pursue their dreams. Providing skills and various forms of art education gives students a voice and improves critical thinking skills. March is Arts Education Month and thus the perfect time to reflect on the myriad of benefits that arts education can provide for our students.
