Each year, students from the Charlotte Walker High School and Middle School, Flour Bluff Independent School District, Port Aransas Independent School District, and Seashore Middle Academy exhibit what they have learned from their art teachers.
This year, two VIP judges reviewed student works of art and they awarded 1st, 2nd and 3rd places, Honorary Mention, and one Best of Show. Grades 6 through 12 were included. This is always a tough show to judge because the art is always amazing! Awards were announced at a special reception on December 9, 2018.
This year’s Best of Show winner received $50 in art supplies and a $100 gift certificate from Hobby Lobby. First Place in all grades received $50 in art supplies.
