The Topeka Art Guild is proud to provide local high school artists with the opportunity to experience exhibiting their work in a professional gallery setting. Participating in a gallery exhibition gives students the chance to share their creativity with the community, celebrate their achievements, and gain valuable exhibition experience in a welcoming and supportive environment.
Thanks to the generous support of our underwriter, Jamie Hornbaker State Farm Agency, we are excited to offer new awards that invest directly in art education.
First, Second, and Third Place student winners will receive Blick Art Materials Gift Cards to purchase their own art supplies and continue developing their artistic talents.
Each participating art instructor will receive a $100 Blick Art Materials Certificate to purchase supplies for their classroom, helping even more students explore their creativity.
Together, these awards support both today's young artists and the classrooms where tomorrow's artists begin their journey.
Student exhibitions are available November through April. Months are reserved on a first-come, first-served basis.
