The Winter Festival Youth Art Exhibit for 2009 showcases youthful talent and imagination through 82 pieces of student artwork. Forty-one elementary, middle and high school art teachers submitted work on behalf of their students for the show. And, the entries represent 30 different area public, private and home schools. The dedication and professionalism of our area art teachers is evident in the quality of the student artwork on display in the gallery.
A public reception for the exhibition begins at 6:00pm on Friday, Dec.4th in the City Hall Gallery. The awards ceremony will start at 6:30pm with Leon County Superintendent of Schools Jackie Pons acting as master of ceremonies. It promises to be an evening of great pride for the students and awe-inspired admiration for those who see the show.
The exhibit is now hanging in the City Hall Gallery, 300 S. Adams St., second floor. The show will remain there until January 7th, 2010. It is free to the public and open Monday-Friday, 8:00am-5:30pm. Parking is available in Kleman Plaza.
