Join us for our 6th Annual Art Show! It’s an amazing opportunity for students to display their work and receive feedback from professional artists (if they choose to). This is great for resume building for older students or simply a great experience for younger students. Join us for this opportunity to dress up a little and display your hard work!

Our 2024 Art Show will take place during our Spring Arts Exhibition on Saturday, April 27th, 2024. Artwork may be viewed throughout the event from 3:30-5:45 pm. The drawing for the Spring Fling Raffle will be at 5:45 pm. The event will be held at Spencerport Bible Church for students in Pre-K through High School.

Artwork set up will be Friday night from 6-8 pm. The registration deadline is April 13th, 2024. Students are responsible for setting up their own artwork on the tables provided.

Please note that this is a relaxed but semi-formal event. There will not be childcare or a play area available; therefore all children in attendance must be accompanied and monitored by parents for the entirety of the event.

Art Show Details

The art show is open to students in grades PreK-12 regardless of where they attend school (homeschool, private school or public school) with ribbons awarded by age. Age groups will be Pre-K, K-2, 3-5, 6-8 and 9-12th grade. Pre-K will not be judged, other students will have the option of choosing judging or not.

The cost is $12 per student to display a 3 piece portfolio for judging and $10 to participate without judging. Students will have all artwork returned to them the day of the show. We encourage students to choose three different styles of art to show their versatility. Water color, acrylic, sculpture, ceramics, etc. may be entered. This year we will not be including photography.

The Rules

  1. Students’ artwork must be original work and not from a tutorial or produced during an art class under the direction of a professional artist.  Students may submit art work from a homework assignment, as long as it was not a tutorial and feedback was only given after the assignment was turned in.  
  2. Work must have been created during this academic school year.
  3. Entries should exclude violence that would be disturbing to young children such as blood, gore, violence and sexual nudity. Comic book style violence is allowed.
  4. Students must submit 3 pieces in order to be judged. Each judge will score one piece, and each piece is worth 25 points for a total possible score of 75. Students who submit fewer than 3 pieces for judging will receive a participation ribbon.

Judging Criteria

This year students may choose whether or not they’d like to participate in the juried portion of the art show. The registration form will allow students to choose. Should they select judging, they will be judged on the following criteria:

  • Uniqueness, originality and creativity
  • Neatness and craft (skills related to that specific medium)
  • Design and composition (balance, movement and rhythm)
  • Visual Impact and presentation
  • Color or value (harmony, balance, effect of light)

Students must submit 3 pieces. Each can earn 1-5 points in each category from each judge (25 points per judge from 3 judges) for a total possible score of 75.

Awards correspond to the following scores:

  • Blue Ribbon: 66-75
  • Red Ribbon: 56-65
  • White Ribbon 46-55
  • Honorable Mention 36-45
