Free Art Changes Student Exhibition (Alameda)

Submitted by the Event Organizer

Alameda Education Foundation presents another incredible season of student artwork in Art Changes. The theme for this school year, Our Earth: Embracing All Communities, is based on the collage paintings of Salma Arastu as well as the poetry of Maw Shein Win. Salma Arastu’s paintings celebrate nature and the interdependence of all living creatures. Belonging and self-knowledge are important aspects of Maw Shein Win’s poetry. Ancestry and the natural world are both mysterious and clarifying in her work.

About Art Changes

The Alameda Education Foundation’s Art Changes program offers video demonstrations by visual artists accompanied by hands-on student projects. The artist videos weave stories of inspiration and perspective that reflect the rich diversity of the Bay Area with a focus on artists of color. The program is designed to help teachers provide visual art instruction and art appreciation in their classrooms. Art Changes began in 2020 as a partnership with Rhythmix Cultural Work’s PAL™ Performance, Art and Learning program to help provide high quality, online arts education learning opportunities for all Alameda County students during the COVID-19 pandemic.
