WABI covers Spring Art Factory at UMMA
WABI (Channel 5) reported on the annual Spring Art Factory held at the University of Maine Museum of Art in downtown Bangor. Families were invited to create their own paintings, prints and paper crafts, as well as view artwork on display in the gallery during the free event, WABI reported. Organizers said they were expecting a record number of visitors, and that the day is a great opportunity for young artists to explore. “I hope they not only make the art, but enter into the galleries and view some art. I know it’s a pivotal point in a young artist’s life to view some contemporary artwork and have a life-changing experience, and I hope that happens here today,” said Kat Johnson, senior museum educator and marketing manager.
