The Summer Arts Program for Youth is currently showcasing student artwork from its summer program at the Coeur d'Alene Library.
Classes continue until July 15 and artwork is being added to the exhibit weekly. The show will wrap up on July 22.
The Summer Arts Program was started in 1998 by the Coeur d'Alene Arts Commission with the intention of providing a low cost arts program for children with high quality arts education in a fun atmosphere.
The nonprofit program is directed by Yvonne Benzinger. Grants and donations by various organizations and private citizens have contributed to the program in the past.
The program enrolls 150-175 students with about 8-15 students per class. 1
Summer Arts Program takes place at the Harding Center for four weeks during June and July.
