Student Artwork Displayed at The Shops at Riverside

For the tenth consecutive year, The Shops at Riverside has teamed up with the Hackensack Public School District to display its student art exhibit in honor of Youth Art Month.

The exhibit kicked off on March 1, 2015 and will continue through Tuesday, March 31. Featuring the work of students from grades K-8, the showcase presents about 200 creations prominently displayed on level 2 of The Shops at Riverside.

A reception was recently held where Hackensack Mayor John Labrosse and other city officials presented an official Declaration of Youth Art Month to the art teachers.
