Humber’s annual art show, eARTh Matters, is approaching quickly and has stepped up its game by going green.
Sponsored by the Humber Students’ Federation and organized by Humber’s second year Public Relations diploma students, the art show is nature inspired.
eARTh Matters is open to students at all Humber campuses.
Maria Schembri, one of the public relation students in charge of the presentation of the show said Humber initiated 10,000 acts of green and they wanted to coincide the theme to support it.
Everything that is being used for the show will be eco friendly, including decorations.
The students used the Internet, Humber Radio and Television for the promotion of the event to help reduce the event’s carbon footprint.
Students are encouraged to submit their nature-inspired art pieces to showcase their talent, not only for the competition, but to also gain recognition.
“It presents students with an opportunity that they wouldn’t normally have,” said Schembri. “It’s more than a cash prize. It can be beneficial to students and shows how Humber is supportive of their students.”
Art pieces will be judged and cash prizes will be awarded to the first, second and third place winners in different categories.
The five best pieces will be chosen to represent Humber College at the League for Innovation Art Show, which Humber will be hosting for the first time.
The League for Innovation is an international organization that advocates for colleges in North America.
Submissions will be collected from Mar. 15 to Mar. 18. The collection of art will be displayed at the North campus from Mar. 22 to 24 and at the Lakeshore campus on Mar. 25 and 26. A reception for the winners, the Humber community.
