The greater Lakeway community is invited to the 2020 Youth Art Month Exhibition at the Lake Travis Community Library on display from March 2 through March 29, 2020. The exhibition is hosted by the City of Lakeway’s Art Committee in partnership with the Lake Travis Community Library. It will feature artwork from Lake Travis ISD elementary students.
Youth Art Month is celebrated across the United States and the Lakeway Arts Committee is proud to showcase select works from the Lake Travis ISD Elementary Visual Arts program to coincide with the national celebration of art programs in schools.
Youth Art Month is a celebration of the visual arts!
