Art Du Jour

For two decades, the Red Bud Campus of Southwestern Illinois College and Regional Office of Education 45 have partnered with local sponsors to present Art du Jour, a one-of-a-kind experience for talented high school art students. This annual event, held each Spring, brings together approximately 100 students to explore diverse artistic disciplines under the guidance of professional artists and instructors. From photography and painting to jewelry making and stage makeup, students engage in hands-on workshops and showcase their creativity through judged artwork. Many participants have gone on to achieve national recognition, making Art du Jour a highly anticipated tradition. Your tax-deductible sponsorship supports supplies, materials, presenter stipends, and student lunches, ensuring the continuation of this inspiring program that connects young artists with their community.
