The Wisconsin Regional Art Program (WRAP) provides statewide art workshops and exhibits for nonprofessional artists. It began in 1940 to encourage your creative growth in these three ways:
- Your art work is shown in a noncompetitive exhibit in your community. Meritorious work is selected for the Annual State Art Exhibit in Madison. The workshop on the last day of this exhibit includes:
- A demonstration or slide lecture by a professional artist.
- The exhibition judge will answer your questions on design, composition, and technique at a group critique and evaluation discussion.
The Wisconsin Regional Art Program consists of many artist workshop/exhibits that meet throughout the year statewide. Each one has a different artist demonstration or slide lecture and a different judge to lead the afternoon critique.
