Twenty-two 4-H participants, ages 10 through 19, will have their textile art on display as part of "Celebration of Youth XIII: Innovations" at the gallery on the second floor of the Home Economics Building. The wide variety of textile art, apparel and home environment design on display was selected by jurors from more than 2,700 Nebraska State Fair 4-H clothing and home environment project exhibits. The exhibit recognizes the accomplishments and creativity of Nebraska youth and the uniqueness of their projects. The experience also increases their understanding of textile science, design and apparel merchandising while exposing them to college life.

The exhibit and lecture are free and open to the public. For more information about the exhibition, call 472-2911.
