This showcase contains a large variety of artwork provided by students of all ages from Tahquamenon Area Schools, Three Lakes Academy, Engadine Consolidated Schools, and local home-schooling programs.
The purpose of this exhibit is to demonstrate how essential art is as a part of a child’s education.
Patrons of the show will be given a chance to vote for the “People’s Choice Award” presented to one student from each of the schools at the end of the exhibit. A student reception will be from 2-4 p.m. March 15. Parents are encouraged to bring their students so that they can represent their work in the exhibit.
