The Art in Me -- theme for California Arts Day 2009

People today are expressing themselves creatively, especially through the use of computer and digital tools to create images, music, videos, and other artwork simply for the joy of it. For 2009, the main theme for California Arts Day is "The Art in Me<http://www.cac.ca.gov/artsday/lyrics.php>" focusing on the individual creativity of each Californian.

But the theme is more than a simple phrase -- it's also a song<http://www.cac.ca.gov/artsday/audio.php>, written by California Arts Council arts administrator Rob Lautz, who happens to be a jazz musician in his spare time. The full lyrics<http://www.cac.ca.gov/artsday/lyrics.php> are available for poster designers to review, and here's the chorus to give California ArtBeat readers a taste of the main concept and theme of "The Art in Me" --

We're painting California
Dancing California
We're singing California
Art in California!

An audio recording<http://www.cac.ca.gov/artsday/audio.php> is also available in addition to the printed lyrics<http://www.cac.ca.gov/artsday/lyrics.php>.

Instructors, tell your students ... or submit an entry yourself!

College graphic arts and design instructors and administrators are encouraged to have their talented students submit "The Art in Me" poster entries, or even submit entries themselves, as the California Arts Council has opened up the competition to include faculty at California colleges and universities as well.
