Young Artists Series

Wignall Museum of Contemporary Art and the Chaffey College Child Development Center Present The Young Artists Series


Chaffey College and the Wignall Museum of Contemporary Art are pleased to announce the Young Artists Series exhibition and silent auction; a collaboration between the Wignall Museum of Contemporary Art and the Chaffey College’s Child Development Center. The exhibition will be on view March 15-17, 10am-4pm. Please join us for the silent auction on March 18, noon through 5pm, featuring live entertainment and light refreshments.

During the fall and early spring semesters, children and staff at the Child Development Center have worked together with volunteer artists and various Wignall Museum staff to create unusual, unexpected and inspired works of art using various techniques including painting, sculpture, printmaking and more. The Young Artists Series exhibition and silent auction creates a showcase for talent, exploration and creativity.

Cash, check and credit card will be accepted. All works of art that are sold will benefit the Child Development Center and the Wignall Museum of Contemporary Art in support of future arts and literacy programming for children and families.
