Avitable’s piece, “Lavender Hotel Room,” was one of only 93 works chosen out of 1,187 submissions. Representatives from eight member schools of the Association of Independent Colleges of Art and Design participated as jurors for the NAHS/NJAHS . In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the NAEA has transitioned to a completely virtual exhibition, which opens on Jan. 11.
“It’s such an honor to be chosen and represent the East Islip National Art Honor Society,” said Avitable. “I chose to create this piece because I’m into interior design and I want to pursue that for college.”
