Student Artists Earn National Honors
At the National Scholastic Art & WritingAwards competition, Caroline Seamons '20 and Isabella Smith '22 earned prestigious Silver Medals for their artwork.
Caroline won a national silver medal in Drawing & Illustration for her drawing “India,” and Isabella won a national silver medal in Photography for her photo “Cluttered.” These girls, along with all other National Scholastic Art & Writing Award medalists, are invited to attend the week-long national celebration in New York City, which includes a ceremony at Carnegie Hall on June 6.
The Scholastic Art & Writing Awards is the nation’s longest-running and most prestigious scholarship and recognition program for creative teens in grades 7-12. This honor opens doors for students by providing access to scholarship programs and workshops and the ability to have work published and displayed in regional and National Exhibitions.
Congratulations to Caroline and Isabella on this incredible accomplishment!We are proud of our fine arts department for helping all of our girls grow as artists and discover their passions here at Hutchison.
