Over the last few months, Peoria Unified and the city have been celebrating young artists.
Peoria mayor and city council honored 23 young artists from the Peoria Unified School District spanning kindergarten to eighth grade who participated in the 12th exhibition of the City of Peoria’s Young Artists Program.
“Public art enriches the quality of life for residents, visitors, and businesses by creating spaces that invite contemplation, while evoking a sense of community,” said Marylou Stephens, arts, culture and library services director. “Through a diverse and vibrant collection of public art, lively theater, and festival offerings, Peoria is proud to foster a strong arts culture.”
