Two Licking Heights students were recently recognized at the “42nd Annual Young People’s Art Exhibition,” sponsored by the Ohio Art Education Association (OAEA).
Eight regions in Ohio were represented at the OAEA competition, and this year’s show included 95 student artworks collected from across the state.
Licking Heights’ art teacher Rachel Fout said it’s a great distinction for a student, art teacher, and district art program to be a part of the exhibition, and, “I look forward to our
students being honored during the Virtual Young People's Art Exhibition Reception.”
Licking Heights Central Intermediate School’s Mason Kinney and Ekam Judge were chosen as honored artists.
The “Virtual Recognition Ceremony” was scheduled to be held Sunday, March 13, 2022. Central Intermediate fifth-grader Emily Mathias was recently chosen as an honored artist
at the Youth Month Art Exhibition, which is also being held in a virtual format this year.
Additionally, two other Licking Heights Central Intermediate students also received recognitions in the recent 2022 Youth Art Month Flag/Graphic Contest, sponsored by the Ohio
Art Education Association.
Sixth-grader Hafsa Mohamed was awarded honorable mention in the Grades 6-8 Category.
Central fifth-grader McKenzie Stine also earned honorable mention status in the Grades 3-5 competition.
