Congratulations to our 55th Annual selected High School artists!


Juror’s statement:

Ian Carey,

Permanent Art Collection Curator, Indiana State University

I want to thank every artist who participated in the Swope’s Student Art Exhibition. I have recently moved to the Terre Haute area, and I have been more than impressed by the thoughtful, creative work that I have had the opportunity to experience and judge. Congratulations to all of the students who participated. It has been a pleasure to be involved in a momentous event that both encourages and promotes young artists throughout the Illiana area.
