Arlington Public Art’s Youth Banner Initiative is aimed at young people in grades 6 – 12 to promote and encourage development in the visual arts and to provide an opportunity for youth to participate in temporary public art projects in Arlington. Arlington Public Art is a committee of the Arlington Commission for Arts and Culture and this project is generously funded by the family of Gracie James.
Currently in its fourth year, the program invites teens to submit designs relating to a specific theme – this year’s theme was “trees”. The artwork is then reproduced on vinyl banners and hung on light poles along Mass Ave. in Arlington Center. Nearly 100 secondary students submitted designs and the winning entries can be found online.
