Congratulations to the Winners of the Scholastic Art Awards

Kent School artists and designers are being honored for their impressive accomplishments at the Connecticut Regional Scholastic Art Awards showcasing their exceptional talent and creativity.

The Scholastic Art & Writing Awards, founded in 1923, have served as a source of inspiration for creative teens nationwide for over a century. Recognized as the nation's longest-running and most prestigious program for young artists, this competition draws submissions from across the country.

Entries for these awards undergo a rigorous selection process, with judges unaware of the student's gender, age, ethnicity, or hometown. Leaders in the visual and literary arts conduct the judging, and evaluating works based on core values such as originality, skill, and the emergence of a personal voice or vision.

The students showcased not only artistic talent but also an understanding of fundamental values. Their exceptional works set them apart, reflecting dedication and passion in their art.
