This post is long overdue! The FOA Junior Art Exhibition was this summer 2019! A select group of amazing young artists were juried into this exhibition from the 1000 Pieces of Art. 4 of our young students were presented with this honor!! (Lucia, Shiloh, Mindy, and Victoria!) I was so excited considering this was our first year participating. I'm constantly in awe of these creative and brave students. Congratulations to these few that were chosen from the top young artist in Orange County!!
Presented by Arts Orange County and Orange County Department of Education and Imagination Celebration at South Coast Plaza, Costa Mesa CA. The artwork will be on display until May 19.The visual arts are an important part of the Imagination Celebration. This exciting exhibition showcases student artwork juried by the county's top art educators and professional artists! 1,000 Pieces of Art is an exceptional display of student artwork chosen from over 4,000 entries from private and public schools, grades pre-kindergarten through high school.

Thank you to everyone who entered! A panel of judges made up of educators and art instructors recently undertook the very difficult process of narrowing all of the entries down to just 40 entries (10 for each grade category). These semi-finalist entries below, are from our very own students!
