Masterpiece Reimagined Art & Creativity Project Sponsored by the Windham Regional Arts Council
Are you ready to get creative? Do you love learning about famous works of art? We have assembled the following samples of paintings by well known artists from around the world. Our challenge to you is to Reimagine these Masterpieces by putting yourself, a family member, friends, a pet or other found objects into your own Masterpiece!
Choose a painting that appeals to you. Find out a little bit about the history of the painting by clicking on the link in the right-hand column. Use your creative powers to recreate the scene with a new look or new characters. Take a photo. Send the photo to us with the registration form (must be electronically signed by parent or guardian) to enter our challenge. We look forward to seeing your Masterpiece!
