WHAT IS IT? Art Fits Vermont is a statewide community arts project modeled on the Council's 2006 Palettes of Vermont project. It offers Vermonters of all ages, interests and abilities the opportunity to create, showcase and celebrate art.
11,000 wood and 50,000 paper puzzle pieces are being distributed free of charge to individuals, arts organizations, schools and community groups in Vermont. Community events exhibiting created puzzle pieces are now underway and will continue across the state throughout 2008 and 2009. View a list of upcoming Art Fits Vermont that are currently in the Vermont Arts Calendar.
Individuals, organizations and schools are invited to take part in Art Fits Vermont. To learn more, follow the links below:
