SUMMARY:Stanly Arts Guild presents High School Art Shows
DESCRIPTION:Each year\, the Stanly Arts Guild works with the local high school art teachers in Stanly County to host shows for the many talented students enrolled in their classes. This includes private\, as well as public\, high schools. The teachers and students get involved in setting up the shows that showcase and encourage the emerging talent we have in Stanly county. The shows are typically 1-2 weeks in length for each school\, with a reception for the students & their families at the end of the show. There are no prizes awarded but there may be a graduating senior whose work is showcased for some schools. In these shows every entry is a winner\, but the big winners are those of us viewing the show\, as the talent and imagination of these young artists are truly amazing. \nIf you are a high school art teacher and would like to arrange dates to showcase the talent of your students\, please contact our Art Show Coordinator at The Stanly Arts Guild:\nAttn: SAG Art Show Coordinator\nstanlyartsguild19@gmail.com \n
