Art Supervisors Association 7th Annual Nassau All-County Art Exhibition

The Art Supervisors Association of Nassau County is proud to welcome students, parents, art educators, administrators, and community members to attend the 2011 Nassau All-County Art Exhibition. This exhibition will honor 1128 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, 384 art educators from 212 schools in 39 Nassau County school districts, submitted 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. Therefore we are pleased to be able to offer scholarships to 38 graduating senior students for the fifth consecutive year. The scholarship awards ceremony will take place at 11:00am, prior to the opening of the exhibit at 12 Noon. All are welcome.
