2020 APPLICATION AND GUIDELINES
The entry deadline for Youth Art Day is February 8, 2020. Completed applications may be mailed to PCCA at PO Box 354, Newport, PA 17074 or dropped off at the PCCA Gallery, One S. 2nd Street, Newport, PA 17074.
How to prepare your artwork in the simplest way
Tape it to a piece of black construction paper or poster board that is cut larger (about 2-3 inches) on each side, or use a pre-cut mat board from a picture frame. This extra support prevents it from getting bent.
