Norfolk Community Day Youth Art Show Winners on Exhibit at Norfolk Public Library
Madeline Svalbe
Congratulations to all those who entered the 12th annual Youth Art Show! This show was open to all Norfolk residents in Grades 1 through 6. All submitted artwork was displayed at Norfolk Community Day on Saturday, June 10. In addition, the winning entries are being recognized in an exhibit of their own at the Norfolk Public Library from June 26 through the end of August.
The theme for this year’s show was “My Community.” This art show is unique in that it showcases all levels of interest in art and all manner of creativity. The collection of work was created by young artists and enthusiasts, as well as one-time drawers. It is an exceptional show and we encourage you to stop by the library to view this wonderful exhibit.
All submitted artwork received an Honorable Mention Award, with place awards given in each school and in a Dimensional Artwork (3D) category. There was also an overall Grand Prize winner. Winners were selected based on artistic creativity, originality and attention to the stated theme. The Grand Prize winner and the 1st place winner of each group received a Barnes and Noble gift card.
Once again, congratulations to all of our young artists!
