Upcoming Exhibits at HCCA March 13–April 24Each year the Arts Council and the Howard County Public School System celebrate Youth Art Month with a special themed exhibit of artwork created by Howard County public school students in grades K–12. This year’s theme, Personal Geographies: Map as Art, inspired hundreds of amazing works in a variety of media. The annual No Boundaries exhibit showcases artwork created by individuals with disabilities in art classes run by the Howard County Recreation and Parks’ Department of Therapeutic Recreation and Inclusion Services.

Both exhibits are on display at HCCA from March 13–April 24, with a reception on March 19 from 5–7pm. To learn more about Arts Council pro-grams and exhibits, call 410-313-ARTS (2787) or visit www.hocoarts.org. H
