New art exhibit at Bend City Hall

City Walls at City Hall presents Illuminations of ‘Bend 2030 Vision, Well Planned City’ Through the Eyes of Our Children.

The show will be unveiled at a public reception on Thursday, May 30 from 6-7:30 p.m. at City Hall, 710 NW Wall Street. The show will remain on display through summer.

“Illuminations” brings together young artists who have utilized children’s foundations in our community while facing challenges in their lives such as mental/emotional trauma or physical illness. A project from Jennifer Poncia’s world of art and the City of Bend Art, Beautification and Culture Commission.

Touching and imaginative, this is an interpretive collaboration focusing on the sixth Bend 2030 focus area ‘Well-Planned City’. This show brings to life children’s interpretations of 10 strategic themes and showcased at City Walls at City Hall.

Thank you to the Oregon Family Support Network of Central Oregon, whose coordination efforts made this all possible.

City Walls at City Hall is an arts initiative of the City of Bend Arts, Beautification & Culture Commission continuing to make a difference by inspiring the community through art. For more information on the program and/or the ABC Commission, please go to www.bendoregon.gov/abc.
