Newtown Art For Kids 11th Annual Student Showcase!

For the month of June, paintings created by 30 local youth artists will be on display at Countryside Gallery & Custom Frame Design in historic Newtown. The students, whose ages range from 10-17, are using their artistic talent to raise awareness about breast cancer.

In addition to creating each of their own works of art, the students are working together to complete a collaborative floral painting which will be sold to the highest bidder as a fundraiser for MainST. Bidding entry forms for the silent auction of this piece will be available at the art show. If you would like to place a bid , but cannot get to the gallery for a bidding form, bids can also be made via email at youthartsilentauctionbids@aol.com. Bidding ends June 30th 2026 and the highest bidder will be contacted shortly after.

Greeting cards featuring each of the student’s individual paintings will be on sale for $4.00 each. 100% of proceeds from the note card sale and silent auction piece will be donated to WelcometoMainST.org and their support of breast cancer patients undergoing treatment and recovery.

The community is invited to view the students’ paintings on display from May 31st through July 3rd. Admission is free and smiles are guaranteed, so please come out and support our aspiring youth artists and their cause.
