Organizations partner to sponsor art contest for San Diego K-12 students; local winners on display at San Diego Science Festival’s “Science as Art” exhibit April 4

CHICAGO, Ill. (April 2, 2009) – Blick Art Materials and Bio-Education and Art for Science Innovation (BioEASI), an organization dedicated to bringing science to the community through art, today announced their partnership in sponsoring the first-of-its-kind art contest to researchers and K-12 students in San Diego schools. The contest, called Science as Art, invited students to submit original artwork based on three scientific disciplines – health, environment or technology.
