Whimsical Wonder is the theme of the ninth annual student art contest sponsored by WEA Member Benefits and the WEA Member Benefits Foundation, Inc.
Young artists are encouraged to think outside the box and embrace the theme in their unique and imaginative ways. This could be a carnival where curiosities come to life, or floating islands suspended in the sky. The choices are as boundless as the artists imagination.
Monetary prizes from the WEA Member Benefits Foundation, Inc., will be awarded to 11 student winners, with one student artist receiving the “Loeymae Lange Best in Class” award. The “Best in Class” award is named in memory of Loeymae Lange, a former art teacher at Cooper Elementary School in Burlington, Wisconsin. Her brother, Dr. Paul Lange, and his wife June continue to honor Loeymae’s legacy by establishing an endowment gift to the WEA Member Benefits Foundation, Inc. to honor her love for the arts and all she did to inspire students.
