Story submitted by APS Art Educators
Students from across Colorado, including many in Aurora Public Schools, submitted over 5,000 original works to be considered for the state's Scholastic Art Awards. All work honored at the state level will be on display through March 6 at The History Colorado Center, 1200 Broadway, Denver. Honorees will be recognized in an awards ceremony on Feb. 21.
Pieces receiving the honor of a "Gold Key" at the state level will be juried at the national level.
Congratulations to the APS art students and their teachers for all of their hard work!
