WAUSAU – The Center for the Visual Arts will host the “Wisconsin Regional Art Program State Art Exhibit” and the “Statewide Teen Art Mentor Program Exhibit” now through Aug. 27 at its galleries in Wausau.
WRAP features more than 100 nonprofessional, student and emerging artists from Wisconsin who have competed in regional competitions to be featured at this state exhibit. This includes more than 10 artists from the Wausau area.
STAMP includes high school student artists who also compete in regional competitions to be featured in this show. This includes several local student artists from schools in the area.
