U City's 2012 Returning Artists Program Schedule
Participants include Sally DuMaine and Darwin Harris.
The University City Municipal Commission on Arts and Letters announced the tentative schedule for the 2012 Returning Artists Program, which features co-participants Sally DuMaine and Darwin Harris.
The annual Returning Artists Program, since 1994, features artistically renowned (UCHS) graduates who return to share their fields of creative work with University City’s current students. The program’s activities will take place in schools around the city. Middle and elementary schools, both public and private, as well as UCHS will be included in this year’s program.
UCALC sees the program as a chance to enrich the University City schools’ art programs and to encourage students to consider careers in the arts.
