The time has come for the 2019 Scholastics Art and Writing Award Winners to be announced! Students ranging from seventh grade to twelfth grade have entered their best art or writing pieces for the chance to win an honorable mention, Silver Key, or Gold Key. Students who receive a Silver or Gold Key will have their artwork displayed at the Armory Art Center. If a student receives a Gold Key, like our very own Kailyn Licari, Louidjy Hyppolite, Kevaughn Reyes, and Zion Love Chen, will have their work immediately submitted to be judged at the national level. If they win at the national level, students will have their pieces sent to New York to be displayed.

“I feel like it’s truly an honor, along with all my peers, to earn a Silver Key. Especially from such a great organization, I feel like it truly brings recognition to the town and our school. I feel like I’m very proud of all of us, as well as myself, for all of our hard work.”

-Isabella Botero

The categories range from architecture and industrial design, ceramics and glass, comic art, design, digital art, drawing and illustration, fashion, film, photography and more! In the writing category there is fiction, humor, poetry, novel writing, short story, and dramatic script. In both the art and writing categories, twelfth grade students can submit a portfolio.

“We have an incredible selection of photography students this year who have worked really hard and have grown throughout the past few years. I’m extremely proud of everyone who entered, especially those who won Honorable Mention, Silver and Gold Keys”

-Christina Ardner

This program encourages young artists and writers to enter their work for the chance to win scholarships and recognition for their hard work and creativity. For more information and how to enter click Art & Writing/How To Enter.
