MCPS ALL-COUNTY COMMUNITY ART SHOWS

New This Year

This year our county wide art show will be done by community. This format will allow elementary, middle, and high schools within a geographic area to showcase together creating an atmosphere for young artists to envision what their future may look like as they continue on in their arts classes in MCPS in addition to older artists being able to reconnect with past art teachers and view work from their younger siblings. Also new will be a closing reception held on the last day of each show.  

Teachers, Administrators, Board of Education members, and MCPS Central Office staff will be invited to  write their name on a "MCPS recognized Artist" button to leave on an artwork that resonates with them as they view the work throughout the week and/or at the closing reception. We hope this format will honor students' work in a more meaningful way and increase attendance from MCPS stakeholders.
