Arts Council Windsor & Region, in partnership with the Greater Essex County District School Board and the Windsor-Essex Catholic District School Board, is proud to announce the 9th annual Working with the Environment Exhibition, April 30th 2019 at ArtSpeak Gallery. Sponsored by Unifor Local 200, this event provides local high school students an opportunity to showcase their artistic talents and share their work with the community. Local High Schools throughout Windsor-Essex are invited to submit up to three works of art that reflect the theme of the “environment”, “working (labour)” or a combination of both. 

Participating students will have their work displayed in an exhibition and are entered in a chance to win a jury selected monetary prize intended to help them further their artistic development and endeavours. Works include sculpture, painting, drawing, photography and fine craft. To participate, each school must register online no later than APRIL 5th 2019 AT 5:00pm.
