Producer Myles Trempe was featured in the Urbana Daily Citizen article “Trempe Spins His ‘Bad Art’” to promote the 9th annual Bad Art by Good People fundraiser, presented by the Champaign County Arts Council. The competition features non-artist celebrities creating works of art and campaigning for the public’s votes for their artwork.
About his artwork, Trempe said, “I’d call it a self-portrait with a ‘spin’ on the head.” The public can vote for their favorite artwork using PayPal on the Arts Council’s website, www.champaigncountyartscouncil.org. Votes can also be cast with cash, check or credit card at the Arts Council, 119 Miami St., Urbana. The office is open Tuesday-Friday, 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.
