Carmichaels students’ artwork to be featured
Carmichaels Area High School will present an art exhibition featuring work from students later this month.
The exhibit will be held Friday, May 13, from 6 to 8 p.m. at Greene Academy of Art on North Market Street in Carmichaels. Admission is free, and the public is invited to attend.
Art students’ work, created throughout this school year, includes ceramics, sculpture, drawing, painting, print-making and mixed media, some of which are award-winning pieces from the Scholastic Art and Writing Awards.
This year, the senior Advanced Art students will be displaying portfolios in the exhibit.
“I am so impressed with all of the students, and the seniors deserve recognition for the hard work they’ve put in throughout the years,” high school art teacher Marlynn White said. “They will select several of their favorite pieces to be presented as portfolios in the show. It will give them a chance to shine in one of the last events of their high school careers.”
This is the fourth year for the high school art show to take place at the Greene Academy in Carmichaels.
“I feel that this is the perfect venue for the event,” she said. “The Greene Academy is dedicated to promoting the arts in the area, and the historic aspect of the building fits perfectly with the style of art my students tend to portray. I couldn’t ask for a better way to present this show.”
