Description

The Lake Oswego Festival of the Arts invites you to show us your personal Happy Place! Use your emotional and creative ideas to interpret a place you'd like to escape to- real or imaginary. This might be a location you daydream about, a place you retreat to frequently, or just a stolen moment to a tranquil setting, during a busy day. Think about places you dream of going or just have your head in the clouds. Maybe your happy place is on the sofa with a favorite book. Transport yourself to a place you hold dear to your heart, and then get it onto your canvas!
