The Holland Area Arts Council is gearing up to host Debut 2017, a regional high school art competition showcasing 13 area high schools.
Next week, the Arts Council will hold an award reception to honor students from surrounding high schools that display artistic growth and gives the students a chance to participate in a juried competition. The schools involved are Black River, Careerline Tech, Coopersville, Fennville, Grand Haven, Grandville, Hamilton, Holland Christian, Holland, Jenison, Saugatuck, West Ottawa and Zeeland. The exhibition will be juried by Kendall College’s Patricia Hendricks Constantine.
The awards ceremony will take place Thursday, March 9 at 6 p.m. and will include food, refreshments, and a statement from the juror about the student’s work and her selections. In addition to honoring high school artists, the Holland Area Arts Council will be hosting West Ottawa Public Schools’ Elementary Art Exhibition from 5-8p.m. in conjunction with Debut.
