Intergenerational art to shine at ‘Origin & Echo’ show

An intergenerational art show to debut on May 1 at the Northport Arts Association (NAA) building will feature adult artwork inspired and paired with K-12 student work.

Northport Public School Art Teacher Jen Evans is organizing the show, “Origin & Echo,” that will involve most of the district’s K-12 students, as well as kids from Northport’s newest children’s center run by Betsy Shiner, Dandelion Discovery Center. The show will include a variety of work from youth of all ages, including adults which will act as the “echo” of what is submitted. Evans said she is also looking to reach residents from Northport Highlands to get a broader age range involved in the process.
