The College of Visual and Performing Arts is thrilled to host this 4th annual high school invitational exhibition and to showcase the artwork of many of the region's talented art students. The Emerging Young Artists 2016 Invitational Exhibition recognizes the exceptional merit of high school art students from thirty-four high school art programs in Massachusetts. The EYA 2016 exhibiting schools are: Abington High School, Acton-Boxborough Regional High School, Auburn High School, Belmont High School, Bishop Connolly High School, Bishop Feehan High School, Bishop Fenwick High School, Bishop Stang High School, Bourne High School, Bridgewater-Raynham Regional High School, Brockton High School, CATS Academy Boston, Chelmsford High School, Dartmouth High School, Dennis Yarmouth Regional High School, Fairhaven High School, Falmouth High School, Marlborough High School, New Bedford High School, Northampton High School, Oakmont Regional High School, Old Rochester Regional High School, Pembroke High School, Revere High School, Seekonk High School, Shawsheen Valley Technical High School, Shrewsbury High School, Silver Lake Regional High School, Somerset Berkley Regional High School, Southeastern Regional Vocational Technical High School, Wachusett Regional High School, Wayland High School, West Boylston Middle High School and Westport High School. The participating schools were invited to be part of the exhibition for the long-term commitment they have demonstrated to art education and for the quality of work that comes from their art programs. The art teachers from these high schools were asked to select artwork in any media (drawing, painting, sculpture, ceramics, photography, film, video, printmaking, graphic design, etc.) from their best students to be included in this group exhibition. The result is a marvelous exhibition that showcases the talents of these young artists.
