Trojan Art Day

Poster designed by Jerry Johnson to commemorate February 15, 2019 Trojan Art Day: displayed on the left side of the elongated landscape page are the words Art  + Design typed against a white background surrounded with bit-like confetti and ribbons of colors (red, yellow, blue, green, aqua, pink, orange, etc), next to a button pin with the words Trojan Art Day printed on an orange/yellow paint splatted background. Moving to the right side of the poster is an aerial view photograph of the center court of Malone Hall and everyone in attendance at Trojan Art Day, wearing red T-shirts with their hands-up in the air; 270+ middle and high school students, art teachers, faculty, staff and student volunteers from the Department of Art and Design.

Trojan Art Day offers workshops, demonstrations, and mini competitions led by students and faculty from the Department of Art and Design. The morning’s activities precede the District II Visual Arts Achievement Program awards ceremony, which concludes the week-long art competition sponsored by the Alabama State Council on the Arts and exhibited in the International Arts Center. A grant from the Alabama State Council on the Arts partially funds both Trojan Art Day & VAAP.

District II schools and teachers are encouraged to enter the VAAP competition and participate in Trojan Art Day. District II includes schools from Autauga, Barbour, Bullock, Butler, Chambers, Clay, Coffee, Coosa, Covington, Crenshaw, Dale, Dallas, Elmore, Geneva, Henry, Houston, Lee, Lowndes, Macon, Montgomery, Pike, Russell, Randolph, and Tallapoosa counties.

While the competition and exhibition are limited to schools within District II, Trojan Art Day is open to all Alabama public and private schools, and homeschooled groups and individuals.
