Anne Arundel Student Artists Featured At Westfield Annapolis Display

ANNAPOLIS, MD — Art created by emerging student visual artists from across Anne Arundel County is on display through May 28 in the 2023 Student Art Exhibit.

Anne Arundel County Public Schools’ Visual Arts Office, in partnership with Westfield Annapolis, are presenting the exhibit. The show includes drawings, paintings, mixed media, and photography.

High school, middle school, and elementary school student artwork is displayed in the corridor between Macy’s and Teavana, a news release said.

About 3,500 quality student pieces are featured in a public showcase of the depth and breadth of the AACPS visual arts program in all schools.

"Exhibiting artwork is an essential part of the art program experience and displays highlight the students’ achievements in the art studio classroom," an AACPS news release said. "By displaying artwork, students are shown the value that we, the school and public community, place on their hard work and effort in the production of quality artwork. The display provides an opportunity for students and teachers to share their artistic successes with the community, families, and peers.

Westfield Annapolis will host an open house from 6 to 7 p.m. on Tuesday, May 2. During the open house, parents, teachers, family, and friends of the student artists are invited to gather in front of Crate & Barrel at 6:15 p.m. Superintendent of Schools Dr. Mark Bedell will speak to artists and their families as part of the open house.
