77 artworks were selected for the exhibition from the student entries of 18 High Schools throughout Connecticut. The top selected artists will be featured and presented with special recognition and awards at the opening reception. WCSU celebrates the students contributions as a way to encourage the development of young artists as they prepare to investigate the arts in a college setting. The inaugural event hosted by WCSU seeks to provide a forum for young artists to be included in a gallery exhibition as a means to inspire continued and renewed efforts for creation of art.
