JOSEPH — Submissions of artworks are due Wednesday, April 3 from noon to 4 p.m. for the Wallowa Valley Youth Arts Festival at the Josephy Center for Arts and Culture in Joseph.

The works will be on display April 6-22.

Children in grades K-6 are invited to show one piece of artwork and youths in grades 7-12 are invited to show two pieces of artwork.

All two-dimensional artwork must be mounted on sturdy board and/or matted and ready-to-hang. The center has adhesive hanging tabs.

The center is at 403 N. Main St. in Joseph.

This annual event features artwork, lots of award ribbons, hands-on activities and musical performances by area youths. The show was first initiated in 1989 by local photographer Doris Woempner, and has been chaired over the years by several youth-art supporters.

For many years, Maria Weer of Building Healthy Families has led the show. The Wallowa Valley Arts Council sponsors the festival each year.
