    Between this exhibition being the last of the year and the size of the gallery space (art teachers submit the best works of the entire year, but the number of artworks for display is limited), it ends up being a very high-end showing. Only 30% of all submissions were selected!  

     

    A reception for students, families, teachers, and administrators will be held on Thursday, May 2, from 6:00 to 8:00 PM, with an awards ceremony beginning at 6:30 PM.
