We want to thank all of our participant artists and their teachers, parents and guardians who helped make this happen! We were thrilled to have received so many submissions. You all rock!
St. Mary’s County Lions Clubs, working with our community partners, St. Mary’s County Arts Council, Studio R, and Red Chalk Studios in Virginia Beach, sponsored the contest for all County students ages 11, 12, and 13. Each poster was judged on originality, artistic merit and expression of the theme.
