Join us for an Art Reception on April 15

Zonta Club of Cheyenne will host a public Art Reception on Monday, April 15 from 5:30 to 7:00 p.m. at the Cheyenne Civic Center. The featured art will be the more than a dozen entries submitted as part of the Zonta Art Contest to raise awareness about violence against women.  The reception is free and light refreshments will be provided.  Everyone is invited to attend.

The reception will also offer opportunities for the attendees to participate in interactive activities, should they choose to do so.  Attendees of all ages are welcome. There will be an opportunity to create your own art or to respond to the art on display.  Furthermore, in addition to the formal judging to determine the art contest winners, a people’s choice award will be provided.  Attendees are asked to weigh in on their favorite piece.

The theme of the art contest was Art Against Abuse.  The entries are wide ranging including art from both teens and adults.   The style of art on display includes sketches, paintings, a shadow box, and a short story with a painted cover.  Each is based on the artist’s interpretation of the impact that gender-based violence can have on the victims, their families, and the community.

For those unable to attend the reception, the art entries will be on display in the lobby of the Civic Center through April 29 during regular box office hours.
