Olivia Evans ’25 won a Gold Medal for her artwork titled Under the Surface, and Chloe Warner ’25 earned a Gold Medal for her piece called Take the Veil. Maren Levy ’26 received a Silver Medal for her mixed media work named Little Cows.
Their work was entered into the national competition after they won Gold Keys in the Mid-South Scholastic Art Awards. Congratulations to Olivia, Chloe, and Maren on this amazing accomplishment! These girls, along with all other national medalists, are invited to attend a special ceremony at Carnegie Hall.
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.
