The Ohio Governor's Youth Art Exhibition, now in its forty-eighth year, is dedicated to the educational and artistic advancement of our talented young people in the state of Ohio. The exhibition is open to all of Ohio's 1,112 high schools, both public and private, chartered by the State of Ohio Department of Education. Our purpose is to provide all budding young artists of the state with opportunities to advance their talent, whether that be through scholarships or simply experiencing the process of entering their work in a competition. The exhibition is a valuable incentive for our young people; it encourages an appreciation for the arts throughout Ohio and reflects the fine quality of art instruction and talent which exist in our state.
Northwest HS sent 20 artworks by 10 students (grades 10-12) to Milford HS over the weekend for the competition. Five artworks were selected to move on in the competition. The students are: Brennan Moore (grade 12), Terry Matthews (grade 12), Savanna Chapin (grade 10), and two artworks by Malik Wilkins (grade 12). The next level of competition will take place this weekend at Hilliard HS. Photos of the winning artworks are below.
