Girl Scouts Spirit of Nebraska takes pride in the variety of unique programs experiences we offer our members. One of the most unique programs is Artventure. Artventure matches small groups of Girl Scouts with a professional artist for a collaborative, arts education experience. The group works as a team from concept creation to the finished work of art. The artists and girls design original artwork that is sold at a silent auction. All the girls on that team have a hand in the finished product. In addition, professional artists submit their own work of art into the auction, creating an even more fabulous art event.
Because of Covid-19, we have reimagined what Artventure 2021 will look like. We are thrilled about the new opportunities to continue this tradition. Virtual collaborations are offered this year, with a variety of mediums to choose from. This opens up all new possibilities for girls everywhere. We even have Girl Scouts from other states included in our Artventure collaborations.
All virtual collaborations will take place between January 15th and March 7th, 2021. Participants will have a small packet of materials mailed to their homes. The packet includes enough supplies to make a “keep” piece for themselves and a piece to add to the collaborative piece that is included in the auction. The girls will also receive an exclusive Artventure patch, that is designed by a Girl Scout each year.
It’s a great way for Girl Scouts to experience a new art medium and help other Girl Scouts in the process. All proceeds go to Girl Scouts Spirit of Nebraska to help with financial aid. If you want to learn more about Artventure, call Krista at 308-760-6402.
