Origin & Echo

New exhibit opening in Northport

Art can often be a solo endeavor, but Northport Public Schools art teacher Jen Evans and the Northport Arts Association want to bridge that gap. The upcoming Origin & Echo exhibit features original works by K-12 students alongside art inspired by those pieces from adult artists in the community. (For example, a student could paint a field of flowers, and their adult pair could build a 3D copper wire bouquet.) The goal is for each piece to be reimagined and translated into a new form or a new medium, all while keeping the central themes and tones of the children’s artwork. The adults have not met the students, and the students have no idea how their art will be interpreted. The exhibit opens to the public May 1, where students and adults will meet for the first time and see their art side-by-side! Learn more at northportartsassociation.org/events-exhibits.
