VERO BEACH — The 25th annual Indian River County Student Juried Exhibition opened at the Vero Beach Museum of Art on Saturday, April 24 and continues through May 23 in the Museum’s Studio Gallery in the Hazel Education Wing. Exhibition admission is free.
The exhibition features works of art created by Indian River County public and private middle and high school students under the capable leadership of area art educators.
Each area art teacher selected their students’ most highly accomplished works to enter into this exhibition. Participating students were eligible to earn awards for their works of art. First Place through Third Place honors were awarded in each of four categories: painting, drawing/mixed media, photography/digital arts, and three-dimensional.
The exhibition was judged by Peggy Nolan, K-12 District Art Coordinator, Brevard County Public Schools. Nolan also serves in several statewide capacities as the Florida Art Education Association’s Youth Art Month Coordinator and the Florida Art Education Association’s Visual Arts Demonstration Schools Coordinator.
