Join us in an exhibition tour at AVA Gallery of the 17th Annual High School Exhibition, artwork created by regional high school students who have been nominated for participation by their art teachers. This year’s awards were chosen by Artist Mentor and Publisher of Art New England, Rita Fucillo. 

AVA contacted regional Vermont and New Hampshire public, private, and vocational high schools, encouraging the art faculty to nominate works by students who show exceptional promise in a variety of creative disciplines.  Participating high schools include Cardigan Mountain, Hanover High School, Hartford High School, Kimball Union Academy, Lebanon High School, Mascoma Valley Regional High School, New England School of the Arts, Proctor Academy, Rivendell Academy, The Sharon Academy, Stevens High School, Thetford Academy, Windsor High School, and Woodstock Union High School. Nominated students have submitted work in seven categories: Ceramics, Drawing (marker, pen and ink, pencil and colored pencil), Mixed group: mixed media, collage, printmaking, graphic design, Painting, Photography, Sculpture, and Wearable Art (jewelry, fiber arts/textile design).
