A public reception on March 10 honored the featured artists, and their art teachers were on hand to support their success! The Youth Art Show runs through March 31 at the Firehouse Gallery in Charles Town.
Art teachers in JCS chose 3 exemplary works of art from their schools to be displayed at the Firehouse Gallery in Charles Town as part of the Youth Art Month art show sponsored by the Jefferson Arts Council. Art by JCS students is on display through the end of March. These 3 artworks came from our talented group of students at S.E.S.! Congratulations Aria Mihalik, Adalyn Harvey and Isabelle Warner!
