Congratulations to all those who entered the 10th annual Youth Art Show! All submitted artwork was displayed at Norfolk Community Day on Saturday, June 11. In addition, the winning entries are being recognized in an exhibit of their own at the Norfolk Public Library during the months of July and August.

The theme for this year’s show was a ‘What Does Community Mean to You?’ 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 perhaps 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 special 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.

Congratulations to all of our young artists!
