The Teens Billboard National Boys & Girls Clubs Digital Arts Competition








Teen members Kory and Gabby spent hours working on this project.  They took the photos of their fellow members laying down on the gym floor spelling out "BE GREAT". They felt that the kids in the picture are all successful because of coming to the Boys & Girls Club. They learned how to use the "pen" tool in Photoshop CS2 to cut out all the members from the background. Then placed them on their layout and used a drop shadow to make them stand out a little more from the blue bars and white background.

Be Great Bumper Stickers for the National Digital Arts Competition








Ezra created this bumper sticker for the national Boys & Girls Clubs Digital Arts competition.  He came up with the idea to paint letters on members hands to spell "BE GREAT" He did this 2 times trying to find out what would work the best and this is what his final project turned out to be.





Connor came up with this great idea to involve tons of members in the club. There are over 30 members hand prints involved.  He chose a member named Hugo who he felt is successful at the club, school, and in our community to represent someone that is "GREAT" because of our Boys & Girls Club.
