The La Grande Arts Commission is also sponsoring a cash award to go to an outstanding work by a La Grande High School student artist. In addition, Art Center East, Crossroads Center for the Arts and the Josephy Center for Arts and Culture will present special awards.
“The Nightingale Gallery is pleased to be able to exhibit and support the creative endeavors of our region’s youth,” said Cory Peeke, Nightingale Gallery director. “We hope to encourage these students to continue their creative pursuits, as well as pay tribute to their teachers who work diligently and with limited resources to produce artists of great promise.”
