MARYSVILLE, CA (MPG) – Yuba Sutter Arts & Culture remains committed to celebrating student artistic achievement at every level. We especially love inviting student artists into our arts centers so that the entire Yuba-Sutter community can experience the remarkable artistic output of our students. Yuba Sutter Arts & Culture is very pleased to be welcoming back this year the fourth-grade students of Lincrest Elementary School to the Sutter Theater Center for the Arts. The Clark Family Black Box Theater will be converted into a walk-through art gallery for the evening.

Lincrest teacher, Lisa Abolt, is once again taking the lead for this year’s student art exhibit. The free reception will be held on Wednesday, March 5 from 6 to 7:30 p.m. at the Sutter Theater Center for the Arts, 754 Plumas St. in Yuba City. Refreshments will be served. Although few of our local elementary schools offer arts classes, we are thankful to Lisa and her team for nurturing these aspiring art students and taking them to the next level.

Last year’s art show featuring Lincrest Elementary students’ artwork was truly remarkable.  It was great to see what one group of elementary school teachers has done to elevate the value of arts education for younger students. Student art shows help celebrate a whole new generation of artists and give students a forum for a public exhibition of their work. Their pride is evident as student artists show off their work to their families and friends in the context of a public gallery environment. 

Art encourages self-expression, helping children communicate emotions and ideas in ways words cannot. It also fosters creativity, imagination, and critical thinking, essential skills for academic and personal growth. Exposure to visual arts builds cultural awareness and teaches appreciation for diverse perspectives while boosting confidence and resilience. A big part of Yuba Sutter Arts & Culture’s mission is to promote exposure to the arts and to support arts education for youth in our community.  Be prepared to see and experience eye opening and breath-taking student achievement in the arts inspired by the greats, including Andy Warhol, Georgia O’Keefe, Wayne Thiebaud and many others.
