The DeKalb County Student Art Exhibit will be Saturday, May 22 featuring works of local art students.
The annual event, sponsored by the Smithville Study Club, will be held from 1-3 p.m. at the DeKalb County Complex at 712 South Congress Boulevard.
“All students are encouraged to attend whether you have art on display or not. We have a featured local artist, Shan Stout and although she won’t be there in person she has sent her Quacker books and an art sheet for all the children to enjoy. We will have a table where children can make some art. Part of the show will be virtual with a power point slide presentation of local art but there will be 68 actual pieces from several of the schools on display”, said Susan Hinton, Art Chairman for the Smithville Study Club.
All students who have art on display will get a ribbon if they attend the show Saturday. Kids can take their art work home after the show at 3 p.m. or they may pick it up at Justin Potter Library Monday afternoon.
The public is invited to attend.
