It's Saturday, and while most people took advantage of not having to get up early for work or school, our dedicated ArtScience Mentors were hard at work planing the upcoming ArtScience Prize Kick-off.  What a dedicated group of professionals!

Today the group was introduced to a new member of our team, Wesley Tomlin, who will be working as an intern for OK ArtScience this semester.  Wesley is a Senior at Harding Charter Prep High School and heard about the program through friends who are ArtScience Prize Alumni.  Although his official internship does not begin until February, Wesley has already jumped in and rolled up his sleeves.  Welcome aboard, Wesley!

On Monday, January 7th, I will be visiting both Harding Fine Arts and Harding Charter Prep to invite students to apply to the program.  Assisting me will be Victoria Washington, one of the 2012-13 winners of the Oklahoma Innovation Prize.  Victoria is a Oklahoma ArtScience Prize alumnus who has continued to work closely with the program.  

The day to remember is Thursday, January 10th.  This is the date of the official ArtScience Prize Orientation which will kick-off the program for the 2012-13 school year.  All students who wish to participate in the program must attend this orientation.  The Orientation will be held at the Boys and Girls Club of Oklahoma County, located at 3535 N. Western, from 6:00 - 8:00 PM.  Come out and learn how to realize your dreams!
