The closing gallery reception and award ceremony for the 2023 Statewide High School Juried Art Exhibit will be held on Sunday, April 23rd in the SCAC EBSCO Fine Art Gallery. 240 students from across the state in grades 10th-12th submitted nearly 400 works of art to this annual competition. Out of those works, judges Ryan Meyer (UAB) and Michael Wilett (University of Montevallo) selected 80 pieces to be shown in the gallery. From these selected works, Meyer and Wilett will make their final selections for the best in each medium category. The 2023 show featured expanded categories for student to enter works of art; painting, drawing, photography, sculpture, mixed media, sculpture, and digital art. Prizes awarded will be best in each category and overall best in show. Join us in celebrating these talented young artists at the gallery reception and awards ceremony. Students will also have the opportunity to talk to representatives from both UAB and the University of Montevallo’s Art departments. The awards ceremony will also be live streamed via the SCAC’s Facebook the day of the event. Live stream details will be available closer to the event date.
