Sorting Out Race
“Sorting Out Race arose out of a desire to divert artifacts with racial content from thrift stores to an exhibit that would generate a healthy community conversation about racial stereotypes past and present in order to heighten awareness of our continuing struggles with race.” – Exhibit Creators.
Washington State Superintendent’s High School Art Show winners for 2022
We are happy to host an installation of the Washington State Superintendent’s High School Art Show winners for 2022. Since 1973, the Superintendent’s High School Art Show has honored excellence in the visual arts. Students from all nine of the state’s educational service districts (ESDs) participate in this artistic celebration each year. The finalists from these regional ESD shows are invited to participate in the Superintendent’s High School Art Show.
Winners honored here have been awarded various prizes in The Superintendent’s High School Art Show. They are from many different schools throughout the state. One of the award winners is Anessa Hanson from Wenatchee High School. Her painting is titled “Sunflower Meadow.” Her teacher is Reed Carlson. Visit the Museum to see Anessa’s painting along with all the other award winners from across the State of Washington.
The Wenatchee Valley Museum and Cultural Center is proud to present the Regional High School Art Show in cooperation with the North Central Educational Service District and the Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction each year. The Regional High School Art Show takes place in March. Our local winners advance to the state level.
