The Art Supervisors Association of Nassau County is proud to welcome students, parents, art educators, administrators, and community members to attend the 2012 Nassau All-County Art Exhibition, which will take place at the Ruth S. Harley Center at Adelphi University on Sunday, March 18, 2012 from 12:00 – 4:00 pm. This exhibition, with no admission charge, will honor more than 1100 Kindergarten through twelfth grade students who have demonstrated excellence in a wide variety of two-dimensional visual art forms including drawing, painting, printmaking, computer graphics, and photography. Student entries are selected by art educators and are limited to a maximum of 3 pieces of artwork from each teacher. All of the exemplary pieces are produced in alignment with the New York State Learning Standards for the Visual Arts. This year, 400 art educators from more than 200 schools in 40 Nassau County school districts, will submit student artwork for this prestigious exhibit.
The Art Supervisors Association is honored to provide this venue that gives our community the opportunity to appreciate the creativity, imagination, and skill that is produced by a fundamental, innovative, and vibrant K-12 sequential visual arts education.
One of the ASA goals is to nurture young artists and recognize individuals who have made an outstanding contribution to arts education. Therefore, we are pleased to be able to offer scholarships to over 40 graduating senior students for the sixth consecutive year and present our annual Professional Leadership Award at the Scholarship Awards Ceremony (by invitation only) starting at 11 a.m., immediately preceding the All-County Exhibit.
