PULASKI, NY – The deadline to submit art for the 25th annual Oswego County Student Art Show & Competition is quickly approaching and the Salmon River Fine Arts Center is calling for entries.

All artwork must be received by Saturday, March 27. This year’s exhibit, which runs April 11 through May 6, will be hung in the gallery of the art center as well as displayed online for viewing. Any student, grades 7 -12, living in Oswego County including public, private and homeschool students may enter and any media is accepted.

Cash prizes will be awarded for exemplary artwork based on visual impact, originality, overall design and craftsmanship. There is a $5 entry fee for each submission and students may apply on their own or through their school district. See the prospectus and guidelines on the website salmonriverfineartscenter.com for more details.

“The show is a wonderful way to reward and celebrate the talent of our youth and allows the whole community to view their inspiring work,” said Ann Buchau, Board President.

To avoid large gatherings, the opening reception will be held via Facebook Live on Sunday April 11 at 1 p.m. This show is made possible through the generous sponsorship from Deaton’s Ace and Agway stores of Pulaski.
