Regional Students Showcase Artwork at Regional Art Show

The annual Regional High School Art Show opened at the Wenatchee Valley Museum & Cultural Center on Friday, March 4. This year’s Art Show showcases pieces submitted by students from 14 North Central Washington schools, with the “Best in Show” selections advancing to statewide competition in Olympia in April.

Judges announced the recipients of the Regional Awards during an awards reception on Saturday, March 12 at the museum. During the judging process, judges looked closely at all the art, judging for first, second and and third place in each category. Students’ names and schools were concealed during this process. The 10 works chosen as “Best of Show” are indicated below with “Best of Show recipient”.

The show is made possible through the sponsorships of the North Central Educational Service District partnerships with North Central Educational Service District and the Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction.
