The exhibit will be held in The University Union’s Gallery during this event co-sponsored by The Crocker Art Museum.

More Than Just Scribbles showcases the beauty and complexity of young children’s work. Each photo and description captures the enthusiasm of the creative process, which allows viewers to gain a deeper understanding of the physical, social, emotional, and cognitive development that occurs when children are engaged in creating art. The collection features collaborative pieces in a variety of media inspired by the children’s interests and experiences. Their inspiration is found through the beauty, diversity, and awe captured by these budding young artist as you see the world through their eyes.

The reception for More Than Just Scribbles will provide attendees with a free pass to attend special events at the Crocker Museum. The exhibit, along with its reception, is open to the general public. Attendants are welcome to meet the artists and enjoy appetizers provided at the event.

Unlike most Gallery events, there will be an art room, where children are welcome to participate in several art activities with representatives from the Children’s Center. The first 70 children at the reception will receive a free goodie bag.
