The 2007 Earth Day Art Show is an endeavor for students to showcase their artistic abilities and to have an opportunity to have their work displayed at the upcoming Victory Park Earth Day kick-off event scheduled for April 17, 2007. WFAA’s Good Morning Texas program will feature a segment on these Earth Day activities featuring area school children working on experiments and learning more about the environment.

“This art show is a tremendous opportunity for young people interested in art, and it gives them the chance to have their work showcased,” said Richard E.
