The Powers Art Center in Carbondale will present the work of 27 students from Two Rivers Middle School in Glenwood Springs. The new exhibit opened March 7 and is available to see through March 28.
Earlier this school year, students from Two Rivers went to Powers Art Center to learn about and gain inspiration from the pop art at the gallery. After exploring the exhibits and immersing themselves in the world of pop art, each student was asked to select a piece that inspired them and use that inspiration to create their own original piece.
“The entire process, from start to finish, is an amazing experience,” said Museum Director Sonya Taylor Moore. “It’s a wonderful experience for the students, the community, and the visitors of the museum.”
The resulting art is now on display at the Powers Art Center alongside the gallery’s other exhibits, some of which feature work from Roy Lichtenstein, James Rosenquist, Frank Stella, and Andy Warhol.
The Powers Art Center is open 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesdays through Fridays, and 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturdays. There is no cost for admission.
