March is Youth Art Month!
The Arts Department is happy to announce the Maine Art Education Association Youth Art Month at the Maine Education Association in Augusta, February - November, 2025.
The opening reception will be held on Sunday, March 9, 2025 from 1 to 2:30 pm. The presentation of certificates will start at 1:30pm.
2025 "The Art of Education" includes youth artwork selected by teachers who are both MEA (Maine Education Association) and MAEA (Maine Art Education Association) members. The artwork will be generously framed by the MEA and will hang at the MEA Headquarters in Augusta. Many legislators, MEA employees, and other visitors who go to the headquarters really enjoy viewing the student artwork. Families enjoy the art opening reception and appreciate the beautifully framed artwork that is returned to them after the show (the following November).
Congratulations to the following seniors as one of their artworks was selected to be part of this special exhibit.
Lillian Page '25 (Mrs. Altman)
Kaelin Regoulinksy '25 (Mr. Hanright)
Ella Wiggs '25 (Ms. Thomas)
