Amity High School Students Receive CT Regional Scholastic Art Awards

The Connecticut Regional Scholastic Art Awards Program is a non-profit, all volunteer activity which is sponsored by the Connecticut Art Education Association.

The Connecticut Regional Scholastic Awards program is a high-quality level, professionally juried event which recognizes only the best Connecticut student artwork.  All Connecticut art students in public, parochial, and private schools are encouraged to participate and submit high-quality artwork.  Student artwork is juried by professional artists and university art faculty and is selected on merit for inclusion in a state-wide art exhibition held at the Hartford Art School.  Beyond the honor of being selected for this high-quality exhibit, students may be awarded Gold or Silver keys and Honorable Mention Awards in each of 17 media categories.
