Lubeznik Center for the Arts (LCA) and the Lindsey O’Brien Kesling (LOK) Wishing Tree Foundation are looking for artists ages 7 through 18 to exhibit in their ninth annual LOK Young Artists Expo (YAE).

Quality artwork of any style and media is welcome for submission. Artwork does not have to be framed or mounted; LCA will do that for the artists!

All artists must schedule a portfolio review before submitting artwork with LCA's education director, Nelsy Marcano. This is an informal review that may take place in person or online. All art reviews must be scheduled by Friday, May 6, 2022. To schedule your art review, contact Nelsy Marcano at nmarcano@lubeznikcenter.org or call 219.874.4900.

The LOK YAE will be on display in LCA’s NIPSCO Education Studios from May 27 through July 8. A special LOK Young Artists Expo opening celebration will be held on Friday, June 4 from 5 to 8 PM (Central). The event will be open to the public, and all are welcome! 

The LOK YAE is made possible by an ongoing collaboration between LCA and the LOK Wishing Tree Foundation. The LOK Wishing Tree Foundation has a dual mission: carbon monoxide education and supporting young people in achieving their highest potential, unleashing their talents and acting upon their dreams through a wide variety of creative and performing arts opportunities, and LCA works to ensure everyone in our community, including young people, receives equal access to outstanding cultural experiences.
