T he International Museum of Art & Science (IMAS) in McAllen is hosting the 15th Annual Young at Art exhibition, presented in conjunction with McAllen ISD. This exhibition features student artwork and celebrates National Youth Art Month, which emphasizes the value of art education for all children. Young at Art includes original works of art created by McAllen ISD students from 6th through 12th grades.

Beginning in the 1960s, schools across the United States have recognized the importance of art education during the month of March. Art educators know visual arts experiences foster the development of skills in problem solving, creativity, observation, and communication. During March, special exhibitions like the MISD Young at Art showcase those abilities and allow us to appreciate the excellent work our children create.

“Young at Art is one of the most visible ways the museum supports and promotes art education in our schools,” said Ann Fortescue, president and executive director at

IMAS. “It’s an honor for IMAS to showcase the students’ creativity and the enthusiastic support of their teachers through this partnership, and we’re delighted to be able to share the talents of these young artists with our community.”

The Young at Art exhibition will be on display at the IMAS through April 2 and is comprised of nearly 200 original works of art. The exhibit is included with regular admission. Visit theimasonline.org for more information. •

I see you out there searching. You’re out there looking for something more. A nugget of truth. A revelation. A spiritual prize. Some grand discovery of Biblical proportions. You are digging to find it. You feel like you’re just inches away from a breakthrough. I see you watching someone who appears to have more knowledge and wisdom than you. Someone who has garnered a following because the sensational things he or she says resonates with what so many long to hear. I see you compromise as you buy into unbiblical doctrines in favor of enticing, ear-tickling, bold and passion-filled emotional decrees.

We all love to be in the know. We all love to be the star of the show. If only you can obtain this thing you are looking for, then you can prove to yourself and others that you were right all along, that you were ahead of the game. It’s like when you are the first to hear some spicy gossip and, as a result, you get to be the first to spread the news, like an amateur news anchor. We’ve all been in that position and can relate to the powerful feeling that comes from knowing we were the ones who broke the big story
