Global "Art Buzz" Bazaar

DETAILS:


The DC Arts & Humanities Education Collaborative is pleased to announce the Global "Art Buzz" Bazaar, a one-day art show featuring the work of 15 international artists who now call Washington, D.C. home. The show will take place during the EXPO Study Abroad on April 8th from 3 to 8 p.m. at the Washington Center of the University of California. Students may register for the EXPO at http://www.expo-studyabroad.com/en/expousa/

EXPO Study Abroad is a fair where students and young professionals can learn more about various study abroad options and have the opportunity to explore reputable study, work and volunteer abroad programs in more than 30 different countries. Fifteen recognized DC-based artists who hail from across the globe will show their work during the EXPO Study Abroad at the Global "Art Buzz" Bazaar. These artists will bring their cross-cultural connections to the EXPO Study Abroad and we are honored to have this talented roster of artists as part of our next Art Buzz show.


We invite you and your students to the EXPO Study Abroad throughout the day from 3 to 8 p.m. on April 8th and we invite you to a special "Meet-and-Greet with the Global Art Buzz Bazaar Artists" from 6 to 8 p.m. to close the show at the University of California - Washington Center.


Included, you will find a poster on the Expo Study Abroad with more details for your students and how they can register. We encourage you to post this information and share with your fellow teachers at your school.
